NASA announced it had negotiated 12-mo contracts worth about $4 million with 9 firms, 3 of them small businesses, for developing low-cost automated solar-cell fabrication processes that could be adapted to automated assembly and mass production of the cells. The firms were Lockheed Missiles and Space Co., $213163; M.B. Associates, $230 000; Motorola, Inc., $433 870; RCA, $846 900; Sensor Technology, $395 000; Solarex Corp., $392 000; Spectrolab, $706 000; Texas Instruments, $537 460; and Westinghouse, $426 000. The small businesses were M.B. Associates, Sensor Technology, and Solarex. The contracts were part of DOE's low-cost silicon solar-array project managed by JPL. (NASA Release 77-249)
