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

What the grant funds

NOTICE: Amended: December 12, 2025. Section I(e) on High-End Computing Resources was updated, a warning about "portfolio" PDFs was added to Section IV(b)ii, and a statement about public disclosure of proposal information was added to the end of Section V(e). NOTICE: November 13, 2025. During the lapse in funding, several ROSES-25 due dates were changed to "TBD" in Tables 2 and 3 of ROSES-25 . Now that we are back at work, we will be resetting the due dates over the coming days. Please be patient. When a due date is reset, it will be announced via Amendment to ROSES with a notice sent to the SMD NSPIRES mailing list and a post to the ROSES-25 Blog at https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/solicitations/roses-2025/ NOTICE: October 1, 2025. There has been a lapse in funding. As long as the lapse in funding continues, civil servant points of contact for NASA programs will be unable to respond. NSPIRES help at (202) 479-9376 and nspires-help@nasaprs.com will still be active during this period. If the lapse in funding continues, future mandatory due dates (i.e., those other than optional NOIs) will be changed to "TBD" in Tables 2 and 3 of ROSES-25 a few business days before the next due date. When funding is reinstated, amendments will be issued setting new due dates. Proposers to programs that were set to TBD will be given back at least as many business days as the government was shut down. NOTICE: Amended July 15, 2025. ROSES-25 Amendment 1 announces restrictions on funding of interagency awards from most proposal opportunities in ROSES-25: Appendix A (Earth Science) of ROSES-25 already had a prohibition on funding to government agencies other than NASA. Appendix C, (Planetary Science) has also adopted this prohibition. Appendix B (Heliophysics), Appendix D (Astrophysics), and F.3 The Exoplanet Research Program have not applied an outright prohibition, but require that any proposer planning on funding for or through government agencies other than NASA must seek approval from the point of contact for the program element to which they are planning to propose. D.1 The Astrophysics Research Program Overview notes that approvals for interagency awards for less than $100k per year are unlikely to be granted, regardless of whether the Federal Agency is the submitting institution or a Co-I institution. For more information, see the research program overviews (A.1 – D.1 & F.1) and Sections I(d)i and III(a) of the ROSES-25 Summary of Solicitation.
