Summary

The Announcement for Partnership Proposals (AFPP) for the Lunar Volatiles Science Partnership (LVSP) invites proposals from U.S. entities interested in collaborating with NASA to operate the Volatiles Investigating Polar Explorer Rover (VIPER) on the Moon. This partnership aims to achieve significant scientific returns while fostering the lunar economy and showcasing the technical capabilities of the partners in lunar exploration. The selected partner will be responsible for delivering the VIPER rover to the lunar surface, conducting a science campaign, and sharing the resulting data with NASA.
