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. ## Additional Information Agency Name:NASA Headquarters Description:PLEASE NOTE: this program has MANDATORY Notices of Intent, which are due via NSPIRES by **May 18, 2026**. See the full posting on NSPIRES for details.

**NOTICE: Corrected April 29, 2026. Letter D was added to Section 1. 2 eligibility to specify that this program will not fund third year of NPP fellowships.

New text is in bold. The due dates are unchanged. ** **NOTICE: Corrected April 23, 2026.

Section 1. 2 C has been updated to remove current ROSES ESD funding as an eligibility factor, but federal agency funding has been added to Section 2. 4 as a programmatic factor.

New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through. ** **NOTICE: Amended April 17, 2026. ****This amendment adds this new program element to ROSES-2025.

****Mandatory****Notices of Intent are due by May 18, 2026, and proposals are due June 17, 2026. ****NASA will host two virtual informational sessions on at 12 PM eastern time on May 14, 2026, and at 1 PM eastern time on May 26, 2026. Connect information for these virtual informational sessions will be posted in the PDF under "Other documents" on the right side of this NSPIRES page.

** 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 Tables2or3of ROSES athttps://solicitation. nasaprs.

com/ROSES2025table2 andhttps://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 followthe link to the NSPIRES page for that program elementand 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. While the letters and numbers are different for each element within ROSES (A. 10, B.

3, etc.) the basic configuration is always the same, e.g., the letter indicates the Science Division (A is Earth Science, B is Heliophysics etc.) and whatever the letter, #1 is always the division overview. In 2025, most program elements will be set up for application via Grants. gov only if requested at least 30 days in advance of the due date.

For more on Grants. gov submissions see Section IV(b)v of the ROSES Summary of Solicitation, that may be found at https://solicitation. nasaprs.

com/ROSES2025. 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) – 2025 (OMB Approval Number 2700-0092, CFDA Number 43. 001) on February 21, 2025.

In this case "omnibus" means that this NRA has many individual program elements, each with its own due dates and topics. All together these cover the wide range of basic and applied supporting research and technology supported by SMD. Awards will be made as grants, cooperative agreements, or contracts depending on the nature of the work proposed.

However, most extramural research awards deriving from ROSES will be grants, and many program elements of ROSES specifically exclude contracts, because contracts would not be appropriate for the nature of the work solicited. Funded Co-Is at government labs will receive inter- or intra-agency transfers.

The typical period of performance for an award is three years, but some programs may allow up to five years and others specify shorter periods. In most cases, organizations of every type, Government and private, for profit and not-for-profit, domestic and foreign (with some caveats), may submit proposals without restriction on teaming arrangements.

Tables listing the program elements and due dates (Tables2and3), a table that provides a very top level summary of proposal contents (Table 1), and the full text of the ROSES-2025 "Summary of Solicitation", may all be found NSPIRES athttps://solicitation. nasaprs. com/ROSES2025.

Frequently asked questions for ROSES are posted athttp://science. nasa. gov/researchers/sara/faqs.

Questions concerning specific program elements should be directed to the point(s) of contact for that particular element, who may be found either at the end of the individual program element in the summary table of key information or on the web list of topics and points of contact at:http://science. nasa. gov/researchers/sara/program-officers-list.

General questions concerning ROSES-2025 may be directed to the office of the SMD Deputy Associate Administrator for Research at sara@nasa. gov.
