Who can apply
This opportunity was open to the applicants described in the notice.
- 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 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?
- Most of the program's money (49% over five years) went to nonprofits.
- No cost sharing or match is required.
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 09/12/2025. Step-2 proposals cannot be submitted if a Step-1 proposal was not submitted. NOTICE: Amended November 18, 2025. This amendment resets the Step-2 proposal due date for this program element, which was previously set to TBD because of the lapse in government funding. The new Step-2 proposal due date is December 3, 2025. Only those who previously submitted a Step-1 proposal can submit a Step-2 proposal. NOTICE: Amended November 7, 2025. This amendment changes to "TBD" the proposal due date for this program element. The solicitation "close date" shown in NSPIRES is NOT a new proposal due date; that is merely an artefact of the NSPIRES system. When funding is reinstated, an amendment will be issued setting a new due date. We anticipate that proposers to programs that were set to TBD will be given back as many business days as the government was shut down. NOTICE: ROSES-25 Amendment 7 makes the following changes to C.1 the Planetary Research Overview: It establishes funding threshold and submission requirements for substantial instrument or equipment requests (Section 3.11), removes the estimated page limit for pilot studies (Section 3.4) and clarifies text on use of spacecraft mission data (Section 3.5). New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through. A Planetary Science Overview FAQ has been posted under other documents on NSPIRES pages for all of Appendix C. 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.
