National Aeronautics and Space Administration in Montana

NASA awards tagged to Montana

National Aeronautics and Space Administration as awarding agency, Montana as place-of-performance: 87 records summing to $78,245,085.60. A National Aeronautics and Space Administration award coded outside MT is out. An award in Montana from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Montana (MT) excludes North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Idaho, and Canada. A Boise-coded award is ID even if a field campaign sits in Montana. Awarding agency 080 does not publish a center split on this Montana cell.

Eighty-seven records against $78,245,085.60 is a thin NASA file, close to Wyoming’s NSF row count and still a high implied mean. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 87 as 87 unique missions, named campuses, or unique contractors. The overlay National Aeronautics and Space Administration in Montana is the both-keys table. Montana federal spending is the all-agency state hub. National Aeronautics and Space Administration is the agency book without an MT filter. All spending ties lists other joins. Named campuses are unpublished. Do not assign $78,245,085.60 to a single Montana university. Correlation is not causation: Montana did not cause $78,245,085.60 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 080 × MT only.

Not a Bozeman lab ranking

$78,245,085.60 does not measure unique missions, named campuses, or unique contractors. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 080 and an MT place-of-performance tag. Awarding agency 080 does not publish a center split on this Montana cell.

Do not treat 87 awards as a census of unique missions, named campuses, or unique contractors. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Montana federal spending or National Aeronautics and Space Administration matched $78,245,085.60 and 87, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Wyoming, Idaho, and South Dakota NASA joins are other pairs, not addends. Eighty-seven is not unique Montana contractors. Continuations can add rows without new missions.
