NASA to Extend $500M REMIS Contract for Low-Earth Orbit Commercialization Push

NASA intends to exercise a two-year option on its $500 million indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract that supports research and engineering requirements of the International Space Station.

Tasks include support for spaceflight and ground platforms, research mission operations, payload facility integration and sustaining engineering functions.
