NASA ROSES-23 Amendment 20: E.6 Fundamental Physics Not Solicited This Year

When it is solicited, E.6 Fundamental Physics identifies and develops concepts for transformative applications of the space environment to advance the boundaries of experimental physics via experiments uniquely possible in space. Most of these experiments have used the free-falling environment of Earth-orbiting vehicles to conduct experiments under nearly gravity-free conditions, but more recently concepts have emerged that use the vacuum of space to send entangled photons over long distances.

ROSES-2023 Amendment 20 announces that E.6 Fundamental Physics, which was TBD, will not be solicited this year. NASA anticipates this program element will be solicited in ROSES‑2024.

On or about April 27, 2023, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2023” (NNH23ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2023 and will appear on SARA’s ROSES blog at: https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/grant-solicitations/roses-2023/

Questions concerning E.6 Fundamental Physics may be directed to Mike Robinson at michael.p.robinson@nasa.gov and NASA-FP@nasaprs.com.
