NASA Grant Writing Tips

NASA Is Asking States to Bid for a Federal Service Academy. One Submission Per Governor, No Dollar Figure, and a Groundbreaking Date of 2027.

NASA published an RFI on September 12, 2026 seeking states willing to host and sponsor the new United States Space Academy, with responses due October 26 at 6 p.m. EDT through SAM.gov. Only a governor or a governor's designee may submit, and only once per state. The timeline demands groundbreaking by 2027, 300 students in temporary facilities in 2028, and a permanent campus by 2031. Here is what that structure actually means for universities, economic development agencies, and contractors in the states that compete.

NASA Promised ROSES-2026 in July. It Is August 29, ROSES-25's Rolling Deadlines Hit the Wall Monday, and the New Solicitation Still Reads 'Pending.'

ROSES-2025 has been amended 69 times and now runs to December 31, 2026 — but the 'no due date' and flexible program elements that carried the community through the gap close August 31. Two rules changed mid-cycle that most proposers have not read: a generative-AI citation requirement and a $0.09-per-SBU charge for NASA high-end computing that must appear in your Earth Science budget.
