Voyager Selected as NASA CLPS 2 Vendor to Deliver Moon Base Infrastructure
NASA has selected Voyager as a vendor under its new Commercial Lunar Payload Services (CLPS) Multiple Award Contract (CLPS 2). This selection integrates Voyager into the next-generation vendor pool, making the company eligible to compete for NASA lunar mission task orders through 2036, with a base ceiling of $10 billion. The contract includes an option to extend to 2041, increasing the ceiling to $15 billion. Voyager's Lunar Systems, formerly Astrobotic, has a history with CLPS, having been awarded four lunar mission contracts under CLPS 1, including Griffin Mission 1 (Griffin-1). Griffin-1, which recently completed acceptance testing, is scheduled to launch to the lunar South Pole in January 2027, carrying the largest commercial payload ever delivered to the lunar surface, including NASA payloads, Astrolab’s FLIP rover, and Voyager’s CubeRover. Voyager aims to provide repeatable delivery, power, and infrastructure to establish the Moon as an operational domain.
