ROSES-16 Amendment 29: Advance notice of Interdisciplinary Science for Eclipse program element.

ROSES-16 Amendment 29: This amendment creates a placeholder for program element B.11 Interdisciplinary Science For Eclipse 2017.

The purpose of this solicitation is to support the development of new research or enhancement of existing research that leverages the Interdisciplinary Science For Eclipse concept. NASA is seeking proposals that would connect the 2017 solar eclipse to underlying principles of physics and astronomy; the physics of the Sun, Earth and Moon; and space science. Building on existing partnerships within the target communities is especially encouraged. All proposals must demonstrate linkages to the 2017 solar eclipse and this can be done using traditional science and/or citizen science.

On or about September 15, 2016, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement “Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2016” (NNH16ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://nspires.nasaprs.com/  and will appear on the RSS feed at: http://nasascience.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/grant-solicitations/roses-2016 .
