• Amended January 12, 2022. This Amendment delays the Proposal due date: Proposals are now due February 15, 2022.
• NOTICE: Amended October 22, 2021. This amendment releases revised text and new due dates for this program element. This is a total text replacement, i.e., the numerous changes since the prior version are not tracked, so please read the text carefully. Optional Notices of Intent are requested by November 22, 2021, and 6-page proposals are due January 21, 2022. The major changes are as follows: 1. Proposals relevant to Biological and Physical Science (BPS) division are now accepted and up to $100K is available to support these proposals. BPS proposals must focus on GeneLab and/or Physical Sciences Informatics databases. 2. Previous CSSFP grantees may apply to the program again, but the call now has a goal of expanding the pool of scientists who use citizen science techniques in their science investigations. Furthermore, to be compliant, proposed projects must be new or heading into a critical transition. 3. The proposal must demonstrate that the team possesses appropriate expertise both to conduct science and to foster broad participation, communication, and dissemination of results. The proposal must describe the technical approach and methodology to be employed in conducting the proposed work and the perceived impact of the proposed work to the state of knowledge in the field. Projects that simply collect data with no scientific goal or use case will be judged non-compliant.
• The description of the specific proposal opportunity on this page is contained in the document 'F.9 Citizen Science Seed Funding Program'. The document 'F.1 Cross-Division Research Overview' describes research activities within the NASA science division that is managing the specific proposal opportunity on this page and may impose requirements upon proposals submitted to this program element. The document 'Summary of Solicitation' describes the common requirements for all ROSES-2021 proposal opportunities. The document ‘Table 1’ contains the proposal check list from the Summary of Solicitation.
