The document outlines requirements for proposing organizations applying for NASA funding, specifically related to research and education support services. Key topics include institution classification (e.g., Minority-Serving Institutions and Predominantly Undergraduate Institutions), potential involvement with federal organizations and high-end computing resources, and export control regulations. It also addresses compliance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA), outlining circumstances that may necessitate additional environmental reviews for certain project activities. Furthermore, the proposal encourages integrating citizen science and the application of Artificial Intelligence or Machine Learning tools. Collaborations involving entities in China are restricted, reflecting congressional appropriations. The document concludes with logistical inquiries regarding data archiving with the Planetary Data System and potential equipment requests exceeding $50,000. Collectively, these elements guide applicants in aligning their proposals with NASA’s strategic objectives and compliance requirements while promoting interdivisional research initiatives.
The document outlines the requirements for a federal proposal related to NASA's solicitation NNH06ASD002N, specifically focusing on the submission titled "Proposal-Summary-Test." The main objectives entail the clear explanation of the proposal’s purpose, methods for achieving research goals, and the significance of the work concerning NASA’s interests. The proposal needs to convey its central aims in simple language, detailing the methodologies employed to meet those goals in a straightforward manner suitable for a general audience. Furthermore, it must articulate how the proposed research aligns with NASA's objectives and broader programs. The proposal's structure requires a concise summary in three paragraphs, although the initial submission appears condensed into one. This highlights the need for clarity and proper formatting in proposal submissions to ensure alignment with solicitation requirements and effective communication of significant research significance to the intended audience.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has released an Omnibus Funding Opportunity titled "Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences – 2024" (ROSES-2024) under the number NNH24ZDA001N, specifically focusing on Earth Surface and Interior (Program Element A.25). This document serves as a guideline for applicants preparing their grant proposals and outlines necessary components, including requirements for documentation in PDF format. Key documents in the associated zip file include a project summary form and a program-specific question form, both of which must be completed and submitted accordingly.
The announcement emphasizes the need for a “Total Budget File” in full proposals, guidelines for submitting High End Computing requests, and specific instructions for proposals subjected to Dual Anonymous Peer Review. Additionally, it outlines the registration process for proposing individuals and their organizations within the NSPIRES system. The document provides various resources for further details, including hyperlinks to the complete solicitation, program element pages, and application instructions. This funding opportunity represents a critical avenue for researchers aiming to contribute to NASA's exploratory and scientific missions related to space and Earth sciences.
