The COSMOS work reinforces Amentum's vital role in the U.S. space program in support of the NASA mission to explore new frontiers and advance human understanding.

“Amentum’s proven track record in enabling complex spaceflight missions makes us an ideal partner to advance U.S. leadership in space,” said Mark Walter, president for the Engineering and Technology business at Amentum. “Through the ASCEND partnership, we’re delivering the space systems and training solutions to facilitate NASA’s ambitious goals for deep-space exploration and scientific discovery.”

Under the COSMOS contract, ASCEND will deliver critical mission operations, systems, and training solutions to support NASA’s Flight Operations Directorate at the Johnson Space Center in Houston, Texas. This work will play a vital role in advancing some of NASA’s most complex and high-profile programs, including the Orion and Space Launch System (SLS) programs which enable future deep-space exploration as well as International Space Station (ISS) operations and astronaut training programs. Additional programs include the Commercial Crew Program, which expands access to low-Earth orbit and the Artemis program, aimed ultimately at developing a sustained human presence on the lunar surface.

Amentum will provide expertise in Mission Control Center systems, training for both astronauts and instructors, flight controller readiness, training systems development, and mockup environments that replicate real-world conditions, delivering mission-ready solutions as a trusted partner to NASA and the U.S. space enterprise.
