• NOTICE: Amended on December 8, 2017. This amendment releases final text for this program element. Proposers are strongly encouraged to submit a NOI by January 31, 2018. Proposals are due April 12, 2018. Unlike the rest of ROSES this program does not use the standard NSPIRES budget forms, nor a separately uploaded "total budget" file. Instead proposers must include in the proposal a filled out budget template downloadable at https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/earth-venture-suborbital-3. These awards are cost capped. The cap includes (and the proposal must display) salary fringe and overhead for all participants (including NASA civil servants). Proposers to this program must use the templates for the Table of work effort and Current and Pending Support for PI and Co-Is downloadable at https://science.nasa.gov/researchers/sara/earth-venture-suborbital-3. NASA sincerely appreciates the comments and questions received related to the DRAFT version of this program element. Potential proposers are encouraged to download the Comments and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) PDF documents from the A.34 ROSES NSPIRES page, these documents contain all of the community feedback we have received so far. These documents will be updated as new questions and comments are submitted. The major changes between the DRAFT and FINAL versions of this program element include: 1) no longer any differences in the prescribed costs for international and domestic investigations, 2) Appendix 1 has been expanded to describe which costs should be included in each category, 3) a new appendix contains the Proposal Feasibility Assessment Criteria, and 4) changed and clarified the science management roles.
