Stardust is managed for NASA's Space Science Division by the Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), a division of the California Institute of Technology (Caltech). Stardust is a collaborative partnership made up of the University of Washington, Lockheed Martin Space Systems, and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory/Caltech. The mission is the fourth chosen for NASA's Discovery Program. These low-cost Solar System Projects projects were designed to perform focused science with fast turnaround times and cost less than $150 million (in fiscal 1992 dollars) to build, and are joint efforts with industry, small businesses, and universities.
