The NASA Headquarters has posted a grant opportunity titled "ROSES 2024: C.25 Lunar Mapping Program". This grant is categorized under Science and Technology and other Research and Development. The funding instrument type is a grant and there is no cost sharing or matching requirement. The grant is open to eligible applicants, which include organizations affiliated with an institution at nspires.nasaprs.com/ and, in general, NASA provides funding only to U.S. institutions. The grant notice provides additional information on eligibility for organizations outside the U.S.
The grant opportunity is part of the annual omnibus Research Announcement (NRA), Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) – 2024. The ROSES program covers a wide range of basic and applied supporting research and technology in space and Earth sciences supported by the NASA Science Mission Directorate (SMD). The grants awarded under this program can be in the form of grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and inter- or intra-agency transfers, depending on the nature of the work proposed and program requirements. However, most extramural research awards deriving from ROSES will be grants, and contracts are generally excluded.
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. Proposals can be submitted by organizations of every type, including government and private, for-profit and not-for-profit, domestic and foreign (with some caveats), without restriction on teaming arrangements.
