2017 CP4SMPVC Release and Amendments 1-5 (includes change to due date for proposals)
2017 CP4SMPVC Release Notification
Proposals are solicited in this NRA to uniquely perform NASA education or research engagement and/or exhibits through partnerships with K-12 schools, youth-serving organizations, libraries, higher education institutions, and/or other agencies that support federal STEM education goals through inquiry- or experiential-based activities that feature NASA’s missions, science, engineering, exploration, or technologies. This solicitation further seeks projects that feature NASA-themed content in space exploration, aeronautics, space science, Earth science, or microgravity, or a combination of these topics to support federal and NASA education outcomes.
Proposers may elect to submit proposals in response to this CP4SMPVC NRA via two different electronic proposal submission systems: either NSPIRES or Grants.gov. In all cases, registration on NSPIRES is required for review and award of any funded activity offered through this solicitation; therefore proposers are strongly encouraged to use the NSPIRES to submit their proposal. Proposals submitted on Grants.gov will be transferred to NSPIRES for review. In order to submit a proposal via Grants.gov, Grants.gov requires that the PI download an application package from Grants.gov. Identifying the appropriate application package requires the funding opportunity number for that program; the funding opportunity number may be found in the Summary of Key Information. Proposers submitting their proposals through Grants.gov shall also register with that site.
On March 31, 2017, the NASA Research Announcement “2017 Competitive Program for Science Museums, Planetariums, and NASA Visitor Centers” (NNH17ZHA002N) was posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/.
2017 CP4SMPVC Amendment 1: Change of due date for proposals to the 2017 CP4SMPVC NASA Research Announcement.
Due to a delay in posting this announcement of opportunity to Grants.gov, proposals submitted via NSPIRES or via Grants.gov are now due June 19, 2017. The pre-proposal telecon will now occur on April 10, 2017. Notices of intent are still due on April 19, 2017.
Please see the 2017 CP4SMPVC NASA Research Announcement for details of all Amendments 1-5.
On or about April 5, 2017, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “2017 Competitive Program for Science Museums, Planetariums, and NASA Visitor Centers” (NNH17ZHA002N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/.
