• NASA's Exoplanet Exploration Program (ExEP) will hold a preproposal briefing telecon on January 19, 2016, at 1:00 pm – 3:00 pm (Eastern Standard Time) for individuals interested in proposing to the Technology Development for Exoplanet Missions (TDEM) element described in Section 2 of the 2015 Strategic Astrophysics Technology (SAT) solicitation of ROSES-2015 (NNH15ZDA001N-SAT). The briefing will include an overview of the 2015 SAT/TDEM solicitation by ExEP Program Scientist Douglas Hudgins, as well as a presentation by ExEP Technology Manager Nick Siegler covering the ExEP technology development oversight process and the facilities and infrastructure that are available to support SAT/TDEM investigators. This briefing is only for proposers interested in the TDEM element of the 2015 SAT solicitation. Proposers with questions about one of the other elements in the SAT 2015 solicitation (e.g., Technology Development for the Cosmic Origins Program or Technology Development for Physics of the Cosmos) should contact, Mario.Perez@nasa.gov or Rita.M.Sambruna@nasa.gov, respectively. An agenda for the briefing can be found at at https://exep.jpl.nasa.gov/researchOpportunities/tdem2015/. WebEx call-in information will be posted to that website before the briefing.
• NOTICE: Amended on March 24, 2015. When setting the schedule for ROSES-2015, the proposal due date for this program element was inadvertently placed on Saturday. This amendment corrects that error, shifting the due date to the prior Friday. Proposals are now due by March 18, 2016. Notices of Intent to propose are still due by January 22, 2016.
