Intuitive Machines (Nasdaq: LUNR) has secured additional NASA Near Space Network (NSN) contracts for Direct-to-Earth (DTE) services, enhancing its position in lunar and deep space missions. The new contracts include DTE Geostationary to Cislunar Services and xCislunar DTE Services, both designed to support NASA's Lunar Exploration Ground Segment.
These firm-fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity task orders complement Intuitive Machines' existing NSN contract for operating lunar data relay satellites. The company aims to capitalize on the NSN contract's $4.82 billion maximum potential value while supporting NASA's Artemis campaign and commercial lunar economy initiatives.
Project timelines run from February 2025 to September 2029, with a possible five-year extension through September 2034.
