HMMH is very pleased to announce that it has been awarded a contract to support NASA’s X-59 Community Response Testing.

Hellauer, Director of Federal Programs and Program Manager for this contract. “We thank NASA for their confidence in our team and the opportunity to support the agency’s vital work in advancing the science behind supersonic flight and paving the way for new entrants to the National Airspace System.”

“We are very excited for the opportunity to bring a world-class team to this challenging project” said Mary Ellen Eagan, HMMH President and CEO.

HMMH will be working with the following subcontractors on the project: Blue Ridge Research and Consulting, LLC; Westat Inc.; EMS Brüel & Kjær Inc. dba Envirosuite; Center for Atmospheric Sciences (CAS) at Hampton University; Spire Global Inc.; Senzig Engineering; and Crown Consulting Inc.
