NASA MODIFIES CONTRACT TO CONTINUE GROUND OPERATIONS WORK

HOUSTON -- NASA signed a $49 4 million contract modification for United Space Alliance (USA) of Houston to continue maintaining and sustaining the ground operations capabilities at the Kennedy Space Center launch facilities in Florida through Sept 30, 2012

As a result, these critical systems can be used by future space programs The programs include potential commercial launch vehicle customers, the agency's Space Launch System (SLS) and Orion Multi-Purpose Crew Vehicle that will take astronauts farther into space than ever before, create high-quality jobs here at home and provide the cornerstone for America's future human space exploration efforts

USA has provided this support under the Space Program Operations Contract since 2006 The contract outlines the flight and ground processing and operations requirements The modification also includes requirements for NASA 21st Century Ground Systems modifications to the Crawler Transporter Number 2, Launch Pad 39B life extension and Vehicle Assembly Building life extension

Work in support of this contract modification is performed at Kennedy and USA's facilities in Cape Canaveral
