BREAKING NEWS: FAMU and Lockheed Martin Partner to Support NASA's Mars Space Exploration Efforts

Yesterday, FAMU signed a historic partnership to provide support through its STEM programs to Lockheed Martin and NASA for upcoming space exploration activities.

During the five-year collaboration, Lockheed Martin will provide up to $5 million in funding to FAMU through a series of task orders commissioning work related to Mars space exploration. The contract signing ceremony was held at the historic Neil Armstrong Operations and Checkout Building at the NASA John F. Kennedy Space Center, the assembly and test area for the Orion spacecraft.
