Space Systems Command (SSC) has awarded the Emergent CubeSat Technology (ECT) project to BANC3, Inc. and Parabilis Space Technologies, Inc. These two Non-traditional performers will lead the effort with support from three sub-contractors: Intel Federal LLC, Princeton Satellite Systems, Inc, and Quantic X-Microwave. ECT was awarded through the Space Enterprise Consortium (SpEC) Other Transaction Authority (OTA), sponsored by SSC. The Emergent CubeSat Technology project aims to develop a prototype that provides more capability than existing CubeSat technologies. The overall goal is to enhance small satellite capabilities as we miniaturize satellites to meet the Space Service Acquisition Executive’s vision. Learn more about this initiative and how it is poised to advance US CubeSat technology. > https://lnkd.in/e6ef24vV

The Microelectronics Commons Call for Topics (CFT) is now open for submissions through the eight Microelectronics Commons Hubs. The Call for Topics is an opportunity issued by the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Research and Engineering, through the Naval Surface Warfare Center, Crane Division and NSTXL, intended to garner input from the eight Microelectronics Commons Hubs and their network of expertise on technical ideas that may be considered as potential project topics.   "The CFT is a unique opportunity for DoD to essentially crowd-source ideas, not just for Commons but also to inform other USG initiatives or roadmapping efforts,” said Stephanie Lin, the NSTXL Director for Microelectronics Commons. “It’s an opportunity for non-traditional defense entities and startups to be heard.”   CFT submissions will only be accepted from the eight Commons Hubs. To get involved and submit a topic, connect with a Commons Hub. > https://lnkd.in/eV5pB9dt
