ROSES25: B.2 Heliophysics Foundational Research
Funds heliophysics research, though this round now accepts only teams already invited past a closed first-stage proposal.
NASA funds heliophysics research — the physics of the Sun and how it shapes the space environment through the solar system — through this element of its Heliophysics research programme.
Applying happens in two stages, and this listing covers the second one only. A first-stage proposal came earlier in the year; only teams whose first-stage proposal qualified and were invited forward can submit a s…
Heliophysics research — the Sun's physics and its effects on the solar system's space environment — submitted in a two-stage process where only teams invited past the closed first stage may submit the current proposal; an individual may lead only one proposal to this element.
