Key figures

  • NASA in District of Columbia: $945,498,056.65 across 787 USAspending awards.
  • Implied mean about $1,201,395.24 per record — a packet quotient, not a typical project.
  • Agency 080 × DC is not a measure of launch pads, unique NASA centers, or a census of headquarters buildings.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
  • District of Columbia federal spending and National Aeronautics and Space Administration are parents, not amounts to add into $945,498,056.65.

NASA obligations tagged to the District of Columbia

National Aeronautics and Space Administration as awarding agency, District of Columbia as place-of-performance: 787 records summing to $945,498,056.65. A National Aeronautics and Space Administration award coded outside DC is out. An award in District of Columbia from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. District of Columbia (DC) excludes Maryland and Virginia. An Arlington-coded award is Virginia; a Bethesda-coded award is Maryland.

Seven hundred eighty-seven awards sit behind $945,498,056.65. That row count can mix large instruments with smaller modifications. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 787 as 787 unique launch pads, unique NASA centers, or a census of headquarters buildings. The overlay National Aeronautics and Space Administration in District of Columbia is the both-keys table. District of Columbia federal spending is the all-agency state hub. National Aeronautics and Space Administration is the agency book without an DC filter. All spending ties lists other joins.

Washington and the District’s wards share one DC stamp. NASA mission directorates can share awarding-agency 080 without a published center pie. Correlation is not causation: District of Columbia did not cause $945,498,056.65 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 080 × DC only.

787 rows are not 787 launch pads

$945,498,056.65 does not measure launch pads, unique NASA centers, or a census of headquarters buildings. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 080 and an DC place-of-performance tag.

Do not treat 787 awards as a census of launch pads, unique NASA centers, or a census of headquarters buildings. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If District of Columbia federal spending or National Aeronautics and Space Administration matched $945,498,056.65 and 787, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Neighbor-state NASA joins are other pairs, not addends. Dividing $945,498,056.65 by 787 yields about $1,201,395.24 per award on average. That average hides contracts, grants, and other instruments. It is not a typical NASA line and not a published median.
