• NOTICE: Amended on March 14, 2018. This amendment delays due dates in anticipation of power loss to New England as a result of the upcoming storm. The proposal due dates for ROSES-2017 D.3 Astrophysics Research and Analysis and ROSES-2017 D.8 Strategic Astrophysics Technology have been changed to Monday March 19, 2018.
• NOTICE: Amended on January 23, 2018. To account for time lost to the government shut down, this amendment delays by one day the due dates for program elements that were due this week. The APRA mandatory NOI due date is now Friday January 26, 2018.
• NOTICE: Amended November 16, 2017. This amendment makes four changes: (1) it excludes technology development for missions with funded technology lines and/or that are in or past Phase A, see the last bullet in the list of Specific Considerations and Exclusions in Section 1.2, (2) mission concept studies are excluded from proposals in the "Supporting Technology" category, see Section 1.2.3, (3) it adds Section 2.5, noting that the MSFC x-ray test facilities are directly supported so PIs may no longer need to include this in their budget, and (4) the due date for mandatory NOIs has been changed to January 25, 2018. The due date for proposals remains March 15, 2018. New text is in bold.
