## Who can apply

- Others (see text field entitled "Additional Information on Eligibility" for clarification)

Proposers must be affiliated with an institution at nspires.nasaprs.com/ and, in general, NASA provides funding only to U.S. institutions. Organizations outside the U.S. that propose on the basis of a policy of no-exchange-of-funds; consult the NASA Proposer’s Guide (https://www.nasa.gov/general/grants-policy-and-compliance-team/ - section-2) for specific details. Some NRAs may be issued jointly with a non-U.S. organization, e.g., those concerning guest observing programs for jointly sponsored space science programs, that will contain additional special guidelines for non-U.S. participants. Also reference the Proposer’s Guide for special instructions for proposals from non-U.S. organizations that involve U.S. personnel for whom NASA support is requested.

## What the grant funds

The upper size for CubeSats has increased from 12 to 16U; Proposals with PIs or Co-Is at Federal Agencies other than NASA should plan on the start date being delayed by 6 months (to ~April 1, 2026) based on experiences with the new G-invoicing system; NASA HQ APRA personnel and the POC for Marshall Space Flight Center X-ray Optics Facilities have been updated; Section 1.2.2.2 has been clarified to indicate that if a CubeSat proposer selects the Proposer-Provided Suborbital Launch Vehicle option, that the PI is responsible for costs of the integration and launch; Section 1.2.2.3 has been clarified to indicate that CubeSat proposers should expect to participate in regular (bi-monthly to monthly) progress update meetings with NASA program management. Finally, proposers are encouraged to use the NASA Grant Policy templates for Biographical Sketch (no page limit) and current and pending support that were released 10/1/24. For more information see the amended ROSES-24 Summary of Solicitation under Announcement Documents on the right side of this NSPIRES page. The proposal due date remains unchanged: proposals are due January 30, 2025. NASA is currently PLEASE NOTE: this program has MANDATORY Notices of Intent, which are due via NSPIRES by January 6, 2025. See the full posting on NSPIRES for details. Proposers must retrieve the instructions document (zip file) associated with the application package for this opportunity as there is at least one required form that must be attached to the submitted proposal package. The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD) released its annual omnibus Research Announcement (NRA), Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) – 2024 (OMB Approval Number 2700-0092, CFDA Number 43.001) on February 14, 2024. In this case "omnibus" means that this NRA has many individual program elements, each with its own due dates and topics.
