Who can apply

  • 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.

What the agency says

PLEASE NOTE: this program has MANDATORY Notices of Intent, which are due via NSPIRES by October 16, 2026 . See the full posting on NSPIRES for details.

 NOTICE: September 18, 2026. Details on the redacted and anonymized budget requirements have been added to Table A.16-1. and instructions regarding Biographical Sketches and Current and Pending Support in Table A.16-2 have been improved. New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through

NOTICE: Amended September 1, 2026. This amendment adds this new program element to ROSES-2025. Mandatory Notices of Intent (see Section 4) are due by October 16, 2026, and proposals are due December 4, 2026 . Any proposal not preceded by an on-time Notice of Intent (NOI) will be returned without review. The length of the S/T/M section is limited to 12 pages.

A briefing for proposers to this program element will occur approximately 6 weeks before the proposal due date. Teleconference information will be posted under "other documents" on the NSPIRES page for this program element.

Proposers are strongly encouraged to use the optional Earth Science Division template for the required summary table of work effort, see https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/templates-for-earth-science-division-appendix-a-roses-proposals.  

Proposals submitted to this program will be evaluated using dual anonymous peer review , see Section 5.2.

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. For example, if one were interested in the Solar System Science program (NNH25ZDA001N-SCUBED) one would follow  the link to the NSPIRES page for that program element  and 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 .
