NASA federal obligations in Utah 1st District (UT-01)

NASA is not the whole UT-01 obligation book

Utah 1st District (UT-01) has a large all-agency obligation book. NASA agency 080 is a modest share of that book. Installation or contractor names are not in the facts and will not be used to explain the dollars. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $4,395,567,611.07 on 54 awards for awarding agency 080 with Utah 1st District (UT-01) as place of performance. Treat the pair as a table intersection, not a ranking of districts as winners or losers, and not a claim that 54 awards equal 54 NASA centers. A National Aeronautics and Space Administration amount tagged to a different district is out of this cell.

DoD, Commerce, or NSF awards that mention space in a description sit outside $4,395,567,611.07 unless those awards also carry agency 080 and UT-01 geography. Mixing those lines would invent a combined figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and launch cadence or local aerospace employment is not causation. Those series are not in the packet. Place of performance as UT-01 locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $4,395,567,611.07 in a district treasury. California 32nd District NASA and Maryland 7th District NASA are other geography joins. Do not add them to UT-01.

54 NASA awards in Utah 1st District

Fifty-four NASA awards is a concentrated grain, similar in spirit to CA-32's short list but on a different district tag and a different share of the local book. Mean obligation is about $81,399,400.20 if $4,395,567,611.07 were divided evenly across 54 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a published typical award. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards, including possible modifications. The extract does not split research from flight hardware or operations inside agency 080. Unique recipients are unpublished.

This page will not invent contractor or recipient names. Open Utah 1st District for the stored district table and National Aeronautics and Space Administration for the national agency shelf. Do not convert 54 into a map of centers, launches, or named missions inside Utah 1st District. The $4,395,567,611.07 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines on USAspending.gov rather than inferring an inventory.

UT-01 NASA obligations are not flown missions

NASA obligations are commitments, not missions already flown. NASA awards often obligate as contracts or cooperative agreements are recorded and draw as milestones are billed. The $4,395,567,611.07 headline is the obligation sum on this district-agency join, not flown missions or finished hardware. Citing the figure as cash already sent confuses two USAspending concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total. No fiscal year is attached to this packet; do not annualize $4,395,567,611.07 into a yearly run rate.

Keep the obligation word on $4,395,567,611.07. Keep both National Aeronautics and Space Administration and Utah 1st District (UT-01) in the citation. Campaign contributions recorded on FEC.gov do not fund this USAspending cell. Different datasets can share a state abbreviation without sharing a money trail.

What the Utah 1st District NASA extract omits

The extract has no roster of centers, launches, or named missions. Facts remain $4,395,567,611.07, 54 awards, agency 080 (National Aeronautics and Space Administration), Utah 1st District (UT-01), and a district-wide book of $34,469,542,969.76. This page will not invent a contractor league table. Sibling district-agency joins are separate obligation totals, not a better or worse score.

Utah 1st District places UT-01 among other congressional districts. National Aeronautics and Space Administration places agency 080 among other awarding agencies. Utah federal spending is the statewide shelf. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of Utah spending or of National Aeronautics and Space Administration's national book the packet never computed. The $4,395,567,611.07 figure is the tagged pair only. California 32nd District NASA and Maryland 7th District NASA are other geography joins. Do not add them to UT-01.

Citing NASA (agency 080) in UT-01

A clean footnote names National Aeronautics and Space Administration (agency 080), Utah 1st District (UT-01), $4,395,567,611.07 in obligations, and 54 awards on USAspending.gov. Keep the obligation word. Do not relabel 54 as a census of centers, launches, or named missions. Quote the district overlay if you need every awarding agency in UT-01, and quote the agency page if you need National Aeronautics and Space Administration without a district filter. About 12.8% of the $34,469,542,969.76 district book sits on this agency in the extract; that percentage is a derived ratio, not a separate published table.

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is awarding agency 080. The other is congressional district place of performance as UT-01. The headline $4,395,567,611.07 is the obligation sum on that intersection. 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 Utah 1st District's economy to grow, or that the district caused the awards to exist. If a later ingest moves the live overlay, prefer the overlay when the table and this snapshot diverge.

Questions

How much did NASA obligate in Utah 1st District?

USAspending.gov shows $4,395,567,611.07 in obligations for National Aeronautics and Space Administration (agency 080) with Utah 1st District (UT-01) as place of performance, across 54 awards. The sum is a commitment total, not outlays and not the district's entire science or aerospace budget. Other agencies in the district sit outside this join.

Do 54 awards mean 54 UT-01 NASA contractors?

No. Award count is a row count of USAspending awards and can include continuations. It is not a census of centers, launches, or named missions. The packet does not name recipients. Mean obligation of about $81,399,400.20 is a quotient, not a typical published award. See Utah 1st District for stored lines.

Is this NASA's entire Utah obligation book?

No. The join is awarding agency 080 crossed with UT-01 place of performance. The district-wide book on this extract is $34,469,542,969.76. Related agencies and other districts are not inside $4,395,567,611.07 unless they also carry both keys. California 32nd District NASA and Maryland 7th District NASA are other geography joins. Do not add them to UT-01.

Is the UT-01 NASA total already spent on hardware?

Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $4,395,567,611.07 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Draws and remaining balances are not published in this packet. Remaining balances are not in the facts.
