Opportunity Summary:
NASA Headquarters released a discretionary research funding opportunity titled "Research Opportunities in Aeronautics 2011" under Funding Opportunity Number NNH11ZEA001N (CFDA 43.002, Aeronautics). The program supports science and technology research and development in aeronautics and is structured to make awards through grants and cooperative agreements. Cost sharing is not required, and eligibility is described as unrestricted, meaning proposals may be submitted by a wide range of applicant types as long as they meet any conditions stated in the full solicitation.
The notice provided here is not the original announcement, but a modification to the synopsis that was first posted on August 30, 2011. The modification adds a new set of proposal topics described as "new concepts" contained in Appendix E2, which is introduced through Amendment #9 to the broader NASA Research Announcement (NRA) identified as ROA NRA NNH11ZEA001N. In practical terms, this update tells potential applicants that NASA has opened an additional topic area (or expanded the research scope) and that the specific technical details, requirements, and deadlines for that new topic are located in Appendix E2 rather than in the general summary text.
Applicants are directed to access the full topic description and the proposal due dates through NASA's Solicitation and Proposal Integrated Review and Evaluation System (NSPIRES) website, under the "Open Solicitations" section for ROA NRA NNH11ZEA001N. NSPIRES functions as the authoritative portal where the current solicitation documents, appendices, and submission instructions are maintained, so NASA is emphasizing that the definitive, up-to-date requirements for Appendix E2 (including exactly what research is being requested and when submissions are due) must be taken from that system. Aside from the addition of Appendix E2 via Amendment #9, NASA indicates that all other information from the original posting remains unchanged.
The timeline information in the notice reflects both the broader NRA window and the specific due date associated with this amendment. The original closing language notes that detailed proposals with specific due dates would be accepted through September 20, 2012, with exact due dates varying by thrust area and being listed in the NRA tables and appendices. For this particular modification focused on Appendix E2, the notice identifies a current proposal due date of July 18, 2012, and reiterates that the detailed due date rules and any nuances are specified in Appendix E2 itself. The posting also includes administrative dates: a creation date of June 22, 2012, and an archive date of June 22, 2013, which indicates when the opportunity information would be formally archived in the listings.
For support and questions, NASA provides points of contact for access issues and solicitation assistance. If someone cannot access the announcement electronically, they are instructed to contact Tony Strazisar at NASA via roa@nasa.gov. For technical help related to NSPIRES/NAIS systems, the notice lists NAIS Support at nais.support@nasa.gov. Overall, the opportunity is essentially an update to an existing aeronautics research call, expanding it with a new appendix topic area and directing applicants to NSPIRES for the authoritative technical scope and the submission deadlines tied to Appendix E2.
