Funding Sources – NASA HESTO The Heliophysics Division competitively solicits and funds technology and mission concept study proposals. The following lists funding sources available for heliophysics technology development, laboratory studies, and science mission concept studies.
With the exception of SBIR, these solicitations are officially released through NASA’s Research Opportunities for Space and Earth Science (ROSES) NASA Research Announcement (NRA) and can be found on NASA Solicitation and Proposal Integrated Review and Evaluation System ( NSPIRES ). Proposers should refer to the NASA Guidebook for Proposers for more help. Potential sources of funding are also listed on the NASA TechPort website .
Heliophysics Technology Program Solicitations Solicitations are generally released annually, typically on February 14th: Heliophysics Technology and Instrument Development for Science (HTIDS) Funds the development of new instruments and technologies and their application to enable investigation of key heliophysics science questions.
Also funds relevant laboratory studies that probe fundamental nuclear, atomic, and plasma physical processes and produce chemical and spectroscopic measurements that support spacecraft observations and atmospheric models.
ROSES-2025 solicitation (updated 12-Jan-2026) Heliophysics Flight Opportunities Studies (HFOS) Solicits and competitively funds pre-phase A studies of space flight mission concepts with emphasis on those relevant to Heliophysics Flight Opportunities for Research and Technology (HFORT) program element.
Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) The NASA SBIR program is part of America’s Seed Fund, the nation’s largest source of early-stage non-dilutive funding for innovative technologies.
Through this program, entrepreneurs, startups, and small businesses with less than 500 employees can receive funding and non-monetary support to build, mature, and commercialize their technologies, advancing NASA missions and helping solve important problems facing our country.
Duration: Phase I – 6 months, Phase II – 24 months Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) page Future Investigators in NASA Earth and Space Science Technology (FINESST) Funds future investigators to performed research and technology projects that contribute to SMD’s science, technology, and exploration goals.
Flight Opportunities Solicitations These solicitations provide opportunities to develop, mature, and apply new technologies to NASA Heliophysics Science goals.
Solicitations generally released annually, typically on February 14th: Heliophysics Low Cost Access to Space (LCAS) Solicits and competitively funds sub-orbital flight missions (i.e. suborbital rockets, stratospheric balloons, or airborne platforms) that seek to investigate key heliophysics science questions and to advance the development of technologies and their application to enable new heliophysics science.
Typical Duration : 3 years Heliophysics Flight Opportunities in Research and Technology (H-FORT) Solicits and competitively funds space and sub-orbital science and science-enabling investigations that use platforms that include SmallSats (including CubeSats) and Hosted Rideshare Payloads, such as International Space Station (ISS)-attached payloads.
The program encourages the development of technologies that will enable future investigation of heliophysics science questions and proposed investigations must be responsive to NASA Heliophysics Science Goals.
Maximum Duration : 5 years The mission of this program is to provide frequent flight opportunities for world-class scientific investigations from space utilizing innovative, streamlined and efficient management approaches within the heliophysics and astrophysics science areas. The following lists non-NASA funding vehicles which may be relevant to heliophysics technology research.
NOAA Joint Venture Partnerships , this funding vehicle can be used to augment existing funded efforts providing a way for NOAA to partner with other agencies such as NASA if there is a common interest.
NSF Rapid Response Research (RAPID) Proposal and EArly-concept Grants for Exploratory Research (EAGER) Proposal (EAGER) are both programs which have sometimes been used to fund technology development or fund access last minute flight opportunities.
According to the current listing, eligibility includes: Individuals and organizations with relevant expertise in heliophysics. Confirm the full requirements in the official notice before applying.

MGPV Travel Grant is sponsored by Geological Society of America (GSA), Mineralogy, Geochemistry, Petrology, Volcanology Division. MGPV Travel grants support student travel to the annual GSA meeting. Applications are restricted to active graduate or undergraduate students who are the presenting authors of an accepted abstract at the annual GSA meeting.
Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Science (ROSES) - 2025: A.4 Rapid Response and Novel Research in Earth Science is sponsored by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Science Mission Directorate (SMD). This omnibus research funding opportunity includes various program elements, with rolling submissions for Earth Science research through August 2026. Proposers to Earth Science using the NASA Center for Climate Simulation high-end computing facility must include specific budget details.
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.

Step-1 closes September 29, 2026, Step-2 on December 4, review is dual-anonymous, and up to $180,000 a year is carved out for public engagement before any science gets funded.
Read articleROSES-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.
