Federal obligations from National Aeronautics and Space Administration to North Carolina

Total obligated

$100.6M

Awards

236

$94,509,960.16 in USAspending.gov obligations is the National Aeronautics and Space Administration total coded to North Carolina, across 227 awards. The pair is NASA plus North Carolina, not a Triangle research ranking. Awarding-agency 080 and North Carolina (NC) are the pair. Two hundred twenty-seven records against $94,509,960.16 is a thin-to-mid NASA file, thicker than a 98-row Alaska cell and still not a contractor census. The implied mean is about $416,343 per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical project. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.

  • Raleigh, Charlotte, the Research Triangle, and the rest of the counties share one NC place-of-performance tag.

NASA awards tagged to North Carolina

National Aeronautics and Space Administration as awarding agency, North Carolina as place-of-performance: 227 records summing to $94,509,960.16. A National Aeronautics and Space Administration award coded outside NC is out. An award in North Carolina from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. North Carolina (NC) excludes Virginia, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Georgia. A Hampton-coded award is VA even if a collaborator sits in the Triangle. Mission directorates inside awarding agency 080 stay unpublished on this NC cell.

Two hundred twenty-seven records against $94,509,960.16 is a thin-to-mid NASA file, thicker than a 98-row Alaska cell and still not a contractor census. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 227 as 227 unique missions, named campuses, or unique contractors. The overlay National Aeronautics and Space Administration in North Carolina is the both-keys table. North Carolina federal spending is the all-agency state hub. National Aeronautics and Space Administration is the agency book without an NC filter. All spending ties lists other joins. Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill, and the coast are unpublished shares. Do not treat 227 as unique North Carolina labs. Correlation is not causation: North Carolina did not cause $94,509,960.16 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 080 × NC only.

Research Triangle folklore is unpublished

$94,509,960.16 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 NC place-of-performance tag. Mission directorates inside awarding agency 080 stay unpublished on this NC cell.

Do not treat 227 awards as a census of unique missions, named campuses, or unique contractors. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If North Carolina federal spending or National Aeronautics and Space Administration matched $94,509,960.16 and 227, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Virginia, South Carolina, and Georgia NASA joins are other pairs, not addends. Do not merge this $94,509,960.16 with a Virginia NASA join because a lab sits near the border.
