NASA ROSES-17 Amendment 37: A.34 EVS-3 Draft Text for Community Comment

ROSES-17 Amendment 37: Release of Earth Venture Suborbital-3 Program Element A.34 Draft Text for Community Comment.
 
This EVS-3 program element solicits proposals for suborbital science investigations that propose innovative, integrated, approaches to solving pressing Earth system science issues. For the purpose of this solicitation, a suborbital investigation is one that relies primarily – although not necessarily exclusively – on acquisition of new measurements from airborne, balloon-borne, and/or reusable manned suborbital platforms. Investigations which rely primarily on measurements obtained from surface-based instruments, sounding rockets, the International Space Station, or CubeSats will not be considered responsive. Investigations may propose acquisition of remote sensing and/or in situ observations from suborbital platform(s), and may also utilize additional measurements from surface and/or subsurface observing systems and from existing satellite missions.
 
On or about October 5, 2017, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2017” (NNH17ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/ and will appear on the RSS feed at: https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/grant-solicitations/roses-2017/
 
All questions or comments on this draft program element should be emailed to barry.lefer@nasa.gov by October 27, 2017.
