Opportunity Summary:
ROSES 2013 Earth Venture Suborbital 2 (EVS2), funding opportunity number NNH13ZDA001N, was a NASA Headquarters research funding call under the broader ROSES 2013 (Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences) umbrella. The program supported science and technology research and development activities (CFDA 43.001) and offered awards primarily through grants and cooperative agreements. The opportunity was posted on July 12, 2013, with a proposal deadline of January 10, 2014, and it was subsequently archived on February 9, 2014. No cost sharing or matching funds were required, meaning applicants were not expected to contribute institutional funds as a condition of eligibility.
A central eligibility requirement was that proposers be affiliated with an institution registered in NASA's NSPIRES system (nspires.nasaprs.com), since NSPIRES is the platform NASA uses for proposal submission and institutional administration. As a general policy, NASA stated that it provides funding only to U.S. institutions, so U.S.-based universities, research institutions, companies, and other eligible organizations were the typical recipients of award funds. The listing also notes "Others (see text...)" for eligible applicants, which signals that eligibility can be nuanced and depends on the additional rules described in the announcement and the NASA guidebook.
For organizations outside the United States, the notice highlighted that participation can be possible under specific conditions, especially when proposals are made under a "no exchange of funds" policy. In those situations, non-U.S. entities are expected to cover their own costs rather than receiving NASA funds directly, and they are directed to consult Appendix B, Section (l) of the NASA Guidebook for Proposers for detailed requirements and constraints. The announcement also pointed out that some NASA research announcements are issued jointly with non-U.S. organizations (for example, in cases involving jointly sponsored programs), and those joint solicitations may include special, additional guidelines tailored to international participation.
The eligibility language further flagged an important edge case: proposals from non-U.S. organizations that involve U.S. personnel for whom NASA support is requested. In those cases, applicants are instructed to consult Section 2.3.10(c)(vii) of the NASA Guidebook for Proposers, which covers special instructions and compliance expectations. Practically, this means a non-U.S.-led effort might still involve NASA-funded U.S. collaborators, but only if it is structured in a way that fits NASA's policy and the solicitation's rules, and the proposal must clearly follow the guidebook's requirements.
Administrative details included a contact for access issues and solicitation questions: Dr. Max Bernstein. The opportunity also referenced an "Additional Information" link to the full text of the announcement, indicating that the short synopsis provided here was not intended to capture the full programmatic scope, evaluation criteria, or proposal content requirements, which would be defined in the complete ROSES/EVS2 solicitation document.
