This Annex (the “Annex” or “Annex No. 01”) to Umbrella Agreement No. SAA3-1723 (hereinafter referred to as the "Agreement" or "Umbrella Agreement") shall be for the purpose of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration Glenn Research Center (“NASA GRC” or “NASA”) and Relativity Space, Inc. (“Relativity” or “Partner”) collaborating towards the development of Alumina strengthened copper alloys for use space propulsion. NASA GRC will produce alumina coated feedstocks of Copper (Cu) metal powder. Relativity will print the coated feedstock. Relativity and NASA will then perform mechanical and microstructural analysis of the Additively Manufactured (AM) oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) Cu specimens. Lastly, Relativity will perform thermal conductivity tests to determine if the new alloys perform better than conventional Cu alloys such as GRCop42.
