NASA ROSES-19 Amendment 49: Due Date Delay for B.9 Heliophysics Flight Opportunities for Research and Technology

ROSES-19 Amendment 49: This amendment delays by one week the due date for proposals to Heliophysics Flight Opportunities for Research and Technology, Program Element B.9.

H-FORT seeks to advance the development of technologies and their application to enable investigation of key heliophysics science questions through demonstration of innovative technologies and associated science investigations in a relevant environment. To advance the Technology Readiness Levels of promising technologies through testing in a relevant environment, H-FORT utilizes the following sub-elements:

·         Low Cost Access to Space, which includes technology and associated science investigations that can be carried out with instruments flown on, e.g., suborbital rockets, stratospheric balloons, suborbital reusable launch vehicles and

·         SmallSats and Rideshare Opportunities, which includes technology and associated science investigations that can be carried out with instruments flown on SmallSats (including CubeSats) or payloads on the International Space Station (ISS), Department of Defense (DoD), or other rideshare opportunities.

This amendment delays the due date for proposals to this program element due to the fires in California. Proposals are now due November 8, 2019.

On or about October 31, 2019, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2019” (NNH19ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2019 and will appear on the RSS feed at: https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/grant-solicitations/roses-2019/

Questions concerning this program element may be directed to Dan Moses who may be reached at dan.moses@nasa.gov.
