Redwire Corporation (NYSE: RDW), a leader in space
infrastructure for the next generation space economy, announced
that it has been selected by the Defense Advanced Research Projects
Agency (DARPA) to conduct research and develop technologies as part
of its 10-Year Lunar Architecture (LunA-10) study. Redwire was
selected by DARPA to participate in the study to design services
for a collaborative environment to support a growing commercial
ecosystem on and around the Moon. This award further builds on
Redwire’s leadership in cislunar architecture and technology
advancements.
Redwire’s contribution for the LunA-10 study will be focused on
approaches for providing critical services to lunar assets from
cislunar space, including high-speed communications and Position,
Navigation, and Timing (PNT). A constellation of cislunar orbiting
platforms offering robust services and broad lunar coverage will be
a critical part of a thriving commercial lunar ecosystem. For the
LunA-10 study, Redwire will leverage its extensive experience in
space mission design, RF systems, and space structures.
“We are proud to be selected by DARPA to design crucial lunar
infrastructure as part of the groundbreaking LunA-10 study,” said
Redwire Chief Technology Officer, Al Tadros. “Redwire’s decades of
spaceflight heritage coupled with our experience working to develop
lunar infrastructure technology, from RF systems, to regolith
processing, to in-space servicing, assembly, and manufacturing,
puts us on the front lines of building a vibrant economy on the
Moon and beyond.”
Redwire will work with the LunA-10 team to develop a cislunar
architecture addressing three thrust areas solicited by DARPA:
Transit/Mobility, Energy, and Communications. Interim results of
this work will be presented publicly at the Lunar Surface
Innovation Consortium Spring Meeting in April 2024.
LunA-10 adds to a growing portfolio of lunar infrastructure
projects for the company, which leverage Redwire’s extensive
experience in mission design, RF systems, power systems, vision
systems, space structures, and in-space servicing, assembly, and
manufacturing.
In July, Redwire announced it had been awarded a $12.9 million
NASA Tipping Point award to prototype technology meant to build
critical infrastructure such as roads and landing pads on the lunar
surface. Earlier this year, Redwire announced that it is providing
its Roll-Out Solar Array (ROSA) technology for Astrobotic’s Lunar
Vertical Solar Array Technology (LVSAT) program to deliver power on
the lunar surface. LVSAT will provide power for missions on the
Moon starting with NASA’s Artemis program and will provide power
needed for habitats and other lunar infrastructure.
