NEW CHALLENGE NOW OPEN

NASA’s TechLeap Prize: The Robotically Manipulated Payload Challenge is now open for applications. The competition aims to advance persistent infrastructure for in‑space servicing, assembly, and manufacturing. Applicants are invited to propose a payload that can be manipulated by a robotic arm in low Earth orbit. Up to three winners will be selected, with the opportunity to win up to $500,000 each across three phases. The agency intends to fly the winning payloads on an orbital spacecraft that will rendezvous with the Fly Foundational Robots platform. https://www.nasa.gov/stmd-flight-opportunities/access-flight-tests/nasa-techleap-prize-information/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=nn202620
