ROSES 2025: A.10 INNOVATE
Funds Earth-science ideas NASA can fund at any time, with no fixed deadline for this year's version of the listing.
Most NASA research elements open once a year and close. This one does not — NASA accepts proposals to INNOVATE on a rolling basis, with each year's version overlapping the next by a few weeks so there is no gap in when a proposal can land.
NASA's own text asks funded work to be planned so it keeps operating after the award ends, and separately encourages non-governmental groups that have not work…
Earth-science ideas and applications NASA accepts on a rolling basis with no fixed proposal deadline, expected to be planned so they keep operating beyond the award period; NASA's own notice sets process rather than naming specific research questions in scope.
