NASA has awarded a contract to Relativity Space Inc., and its Terran R launch service, under the agency's Launch Services (NLS) II contract. This contract allows NASA to utilize Terran R for future missions, with an on-ramp provision that enables new providers to compete for missions annually and existing contractors to introduce new launch vehicles.
The NLS II contracts, which have an ordering period through June 2030 and overall performance through December 2032, support NASA's Human Spaceflight Mission Directorate, Science Mission Directorate, and Research and Technology Mission Directorate. The Launch Services Program Office at Kennedy Space Center in Florida manages these contracts.
