Honeywell has been awarded a contract
by Lockheed Martin to support production of NASA's Orion spacecraft
fleet for the upcoming Artemis missions, which will send humans back
to the moon for the first time since 1972. The contract to supply key
components of the Orion crew module and service module will be
managed and performed out of Honeywell's facility in Clearwater,
Fla. Some work will also be conducted at the company's facilities
in Glendale, Ariz. and Puerto Rico.
Honeywell will provide 14 products for
Artemis missions III through V, including both hardware and software,
to support NASA's lunar missions. NASA awarded Lockheed Martin a
long-term multi-billion-dollar production contract for the Orion
spacecraft, aimed to meet the space agency's anticipated needs into
the 2030s.
Working in collaboration with the Orion
team over the next decade, Honeywell will support Lockheed Martin and
its partners through the development and production of essential
guidance and navigation systems, command data handling, and display
and control products.
