This program element does not have a proposal due date. Proposals may be submitted at any time, pending certain eligibility timing issues related to resubmissions and duplicate proposal avoidance, see the program element text and appropriate overview appendix ( B.1 or C.1). The date shown of 8/1/2026 is the last day that proposals may be submitted subject to the ROSES-25 rules and the current GCAM. The ROSES-26 version of this program element is planned to overlap with this ROSES-25 version by a few weeks, allowing continuous submission of proposals across ROSES years. NOTICE: Amended July 2, 2026. Table C.2-1: Submission and Review Dates in Section 3.1 has been updated and a new row with a new final cut-off date of November 12, 2026, has been added. In addition, this amendment reminds proposers of two important upcoming process changes: Potential proposers are reminded in Section 3.1 that for any proposal for federal assistance submitted > August 5, 2026, PIs and any Co-Is that would spend > 10% time on a proposed grants or cooperative agreements must certify they have taken research security training. NASA will be satisfied with the four online research security training modules on the National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Research Security Training website at https://www.nsf.gov/research-security/training or the SECURE Center condensed version of the four modules at https://www.secure-center.org/ctm The Summary of Requirements for Expertise and Resources Not Anonymized Document in Section 3.5 was updated to indicate that biographical sketches and current and pending support documents submitted after September 1, 2026 must use the NASA-specific Science Experts Network Curriculum Vitae (SciENcv) format found at https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sciencv/ per Grant Notice 26-01. NOTICE: Amended, January 22, 2026. Table C.2-1: Submission and Review Dates in Section 3.1 has been updated and a new final row with a cutoff date of August 1, 2026, has been added. Also, the expected budget and number of new awards in Section 4 have been increased. New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through. NOTICE: Corrected September 9, 2025. NASEM Astrobiology Strategy citation was corrected to 2019 (see Section 1.1.3), reference to the anonymized Table of Work Effort was added to Section 3.2, and HEC request is not included in anonymized proposal (see Section 3.5). New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through. NOTICE: ROSES-25 Amendment 7 makes the following changes to C.1 the Planetary Research Overview: It establishes funding threshold and submission requirements for substantial instrument or equipment requests (Section 3.11), removes the estimated page limit for pilot studies (Section 3.4) and clarifies text on use of spacecraft mission data (Section 3.5). New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through. A Planetary Science Overview FAQ has been posted under other documents on NSPIRES pages for all of Appendix C. NOTICE: Amended August 1, 2025. This amendment makes several changes: It establishes that the anonymized Table of Work Effort and references are outside of the 5-page S/T/M section (see Section 3.2), removes an exclusion regarding data archiving (see Section 2.1), changes the first proposal submission cut-off date for inclusion in the Winter 2025 review to September 15, 2025, changes the second estimated review date to Spring 2026 (see Table C.2-1 in Section 3.1), and removes the HEC requirement in the S/T/M as it appears as a cover page question, see Section 3.2. New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through. This synopsis is a generic summary that is posted for each of the many individual "program elements" in NASA’s Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) – 2025 solicitation.
