Who can apply

This opportunity was open to the applicants described in the notice.

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 Grant and Cooperative Agreement Manual (GCAM) (https://www.nasa.gov/grants-policy-and-compliance-team/#Regulations) 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 GCAM for special instructions for proposals from non-U.S. organizations that involve U.S. personnel for whom NASA support is requested.

Is this a realistic fit?

What the grant funds

The close date above is the date for the Step-2 proposal due date. The Step-1 proposal due date is MARCH 13, 2026. Step-2 proposals cannot be submitted if a Step-1 proposal was not submitted. NOTICE: Amended February 12, 2026. This amendment adds this new program element to ROSES-2025. Step-1 proposals are due March 13, 2026, and Step-2 proposals are due by May 14, 2026. This element uses a two-step proposal submission process, see Section 8.1. Step-2 proposals to this program will be evaluated using dual- anonymous peer review, see Section 8.3.2. Proposal documents must be prepared according to the guidelines in Section 8.3.1 and in the associated "Guidelines for Proposers to ROSES DAPR Programs" document under "Other Documents" on the NSPIRES page for this program element. Proposers are strongly encouraged to use the Earth Science Division templates for reporting Work Effort, see Section 8.3.1. A "Frequently Asked Questions" document will be posted under "Other Documents" on the NSPIRES page for this program element shortly after the Step-1 submission deadline. This synopsis is a generic summary that is posted for each of the many individual "program elements" in NASA’s Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) – 2025 solicitation. For specific information on this particular program element download and read the PDF of the text of this program element by going to Tables 2 or 3 of ROSES at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2025table2 and https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2025table3, respectively, click the title of the program element of interest, a hypertext link will take you to a page for that particular program element. On that page, on the right side under "Announcement Documents" the link on the bottom will be to the PDF of the text of the call for proposals. For example, if one were interested in the Solar System Science program (NNH25ZDA001N-SCUBED) one would follow the link to the NSPIRES page for that program element and then to read the text of the call one would click on “C.2 Solar System Science (.pdf)” to download the text of the call. If one wanted to set it into the context of the goals, objectives and know the default rules for all elements within Appendix C, the planetary science division, one might download and read “C.1 Planetary Science Research Program Overview (.pdf)” from that same page.
