The ROSES 2009 Fellowships for Early Career Researchers aims to support basic and applied research in Earth and space sciences. Proposals can be submitted electronically through NASA's NSPIRES or Grants.gov, though NSPIRES is recommended due to technical issues with Grants.gov. The announcement for proposals will be available around February 13, 2009.

Research areas include Earth Science, Heliophysics, Planetary Science, and Astrophysics, covering a variety of topics such as data analysis, experimental technique development, and Earth system modeling. Award amounts range from under $100,000 for small projects to over $1 million for larger initiatives, with funding available in various forms like grants or cooperative agreements. The typical award period is four years, with some up to five years.

Proposals can be submitted by any type of organization, and those involving international collaborations must have no funds exchanged. Key proposal dates begin on May 1, 2009, and will continue until April 30, 2010, with Notices of Intent due starting March 13, 2009. Registrations for NSPIRES and possibly Grants.gov are required prior to submission. Detailed inquiries can be made to designated Program Officers or Dr. Max Bernstein at NASA Headquarters.
