Colorado 7th District × NASA is a place-of-performance join, not a mission census
This page pairs awarding-agency 080, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, with Colorado 7th District (CO-07) place of performance. The join is awarding-agency 080 crossed with Colorado 7th District (CO-07) place of performance, not Colorado’s statewide NASA book and not a census of missions. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $3,493,446,373.18 on 106 awards. The extract does not list centers, contractors, or mission names. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which district has more need, and not a claim that 106 awards equal 106 centers or 106 contractors.
Department of Defense, Department of Energy, or other civilian science agencies tagged to CO-07 sit outside this total unless they also carry agency 080. Mixing those listings into $3,493,446,373.18 would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and aerospace employment is not causation. Payroll figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as Colorado 7th District (CO-07) locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $3,493,446,373.18 in a district treasury. Denver-versus-Front Range folklore is not a county split in this packet. A Front Range aerospace story is not a packet fact and does not explain the cell.
106 NASA awards behind the CO-07 obligation sum
Mean obligation is about $32,957,041.26 if $3,493,446,373.18 were divided evenly across 106 lines. That ratio is not a published mission budget and not a cost per launch. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations and modifications. It is not a count of centers, contractors, or flights. The 106 rows are a mid-volume civilian science file.
One hundred six lines are a mid-volume agency file. Sort the Colorado 7th District overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Colorado 7th District for the stored table. Do not convert 106 into a map of Colorado NASA sites. The $3,493,446,373.18 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring a contractor roster.
Agency 080 obligations in CO-07 are not flights already flown
NASA awards often obligate as contracts or assistance actions and draw as work proceeds. The $3,493,446,373.18 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of launches completed and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A NASA budget justification dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses agency 080, Colorado 7th District (CO-07) geography, and the obligation metric.
The awarding-agency title is National Aeronautics and Space Administration (code 080). This extract does not split human spaceflight from science, and it does not split primes from subs. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 106 awards, agency 080, and Colorado 7th District (CO-07). This page will not invent a share. CO-02’s NASA overlay on this slice uses the same agency code and a different district tag.
What the CO-07 × agency 080 table omits
The extract has no centers, contractors, or mission names. Facts remain $3,493,446,373.18, 106 awards, agency 080, and Colorado 7th District (CO-07). This page will not invent a ranking against other districts’ agency-080 joins. Maryland 3rd District’s NASA pair on this slice is a different geography key; do not add the two district totals.
Colorado federal spending and Colorado 7th District place agency 080 among other listings. National Aeronautics and Space Administration is the national agency hub. All spending ties indexes other district × agency pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of federal spending the packet never computed. The $3,493,446,373.18 figure is the tagged pair only. Campaign-finance filings are a different public-record system; this join does not claim donations funded these obligations.
Where the NASA × Colorado 7th District overlay lives
Start with Colorado 7th District for the 106-award table behind $3,493,446,373.18. National Aeronautics and Space Administration is the nationwide National Aeronautics and Space Administration hub. Colorado federal spending gives Colorado context. All spending ties is the shelf for other district-by-agency joins on the same obligation metric. One hundred six awards totaling $3,493,446,373.18 remain an awarding-agency file, not a mission census. Center names and contractor UEIs are not in this packet. The $3,493,446,373.18 total is the tagged pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page’s facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $3,493,446,373.18: no fiscal year is in the facts.
How to read the CO-07 × NASA pair
A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 080 (National Aeronautics and Space Administration). The other is congressional-district place of performance as Colorado 7th District (CO-07). The headline $3,493,446,373.18 is the obligation sum on that intersection, about 12.6 percent of the district’s $27,819,068,200.99 all-agency obligation book. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that National Aeronautics and Space Administration caused Colorado 7th District (CO-07)’s economy to grow. Correlation between geography and an awarding-agency code is the join — nothing more. Use the internal links to step off this pair. If you need award-level names, open the overlay rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory.
Questions
- How much NASA funding is obligated in Colorado 7th District (CO-07)?
- USAspending.gov shows $3,493,446,373.18 in obligations for National Aeronautics and Space Administration (agency 080) with Colorado 7th District (CO-07) as place of performance, across 106 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not Colorado 7th District (CO-07)’s full federal book. Other agencies tagged to CO-07 sit on separate pages.
- Do 106 awards mean 106 NASA contractors in CO-07?
- No. Award count is a row count of USAspending actions and can include continuations and modifications. It is not a contractor or center census. The packet does not name recipients. See the Colorado 7th District overlay for named lines as USAspending stored them.
- Is this Colorado’s entire NASA book?
- No. The join is agency 080 crossed with Colorado 7th District (CO-07) place of performance. Other Colorado districts, including CO-02 on this slice, are separate pairs. Those dollars are not inside $3,493,446,373.18 unless the award also carries CO-07 geography.
- Is the NASA total in CO-07 already spent on flight hardware?
- Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $3,493,446,373.18 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault’s extract. Draws, remaining balances, and hardware inventories are not published in this packet.
USAspending.gov congressional district place-of-performance joined to awarding agency. District 90/98 (multi/non-voting placeholders) are omitted. Obligations are not outlays.
