Opportunity Summary:
ROSES 2013 Heliophysics Infrastructure and Data Environment Enhancements (HIDEE) is a funding opportunity released by NASA Headquarters under the broader NASA Research Announcement (NRA) called Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences 2013 (ROSES 2013), Funding Opportunity Number NNH13ZDA001N. The ROSES umbrella solicitation supports a wide range of basic and applied research and technology development tied to NASA's Science Mission Directorate (SMD) programs, including Earth Science, Heliophysics, Planetary Science, and Astrophysics. Within that larger framework, the HIDEE element focuses on improvements to the infrastructure and data environment that enable heliophysics research, meaning efforts that strengthen how the community accesses, manages, analyzes, and uses heliophysics data and related resources.
The solicitation is designed to fund work spanning many stages of the research and technology pipeline. Activities described as in scope across ROSES include theory, modeling, and data analysis using SMD science data; development of techniques and tools that are suitable for future space missions; work tied to aircraft, balloon, suborbital rocket, and commercial reusable rocket investigations; advanced technology development relevant to SMD missions; and the development of concepts for future missions. It also includes laboratory and analytical methods connected to returned extraterrestrial samples and related terrestrial analog work, improvements to parameters needed to interpret space data, and Earth observation or field campaign work that supports SMD missions. The program also highlights integrated modeling and applied information systems that translate research data into societal or operational benefits. HIDEE sits in this landscape as an enabling program element: rather than funding only new science results, it supports the foundations (data systems, environments, and supporting infrastructure) that make those results easier to produce and reproduce across the heliophysics community.
Funding levels vary widely depending on the nature and scale of the proposed work. The announcement notes that awards can be under 100,000 dollars per year for narrow, focused efforts such as targeted analysis, and can exceed 1 million dollars per year for large, complex activities such as substantial technology or hardware development. Total available funding depends on the specific program element and can range from less than one million dollars to several million dollars, allowing NASA to select anywhere from a handful to dozens of proposals based on quality, relevance, and program priorities. Awards may be made using several mechanisms, including grants, cooperative agreements, contracts, and interagency or intraagency transfers, depending on the proposing organization and the program's needs. Periods of performance are typically four years, with some elements allowing shorter or longer projects up to a maximum of five years.
Eligibility is broad in terms of organizational types, with domestic and foreign, governmental and private, for-profit and non-profit entities allowed to submit, and there is no stated restriction on the number of proposals or teaming arrangements. At the same time, the solicitation emphasizes NASA's standard policy constraints for non-U.S. participation: in general NASA funds U.S. institutions, and non-U.S. organizations may participate only on a no-exchange-of-funds basis unless a specific jointly issued NRA includes different rules. The announcement directs non-U.S. proposers to consult the NASA Guidebook for Proposers, including sections that address special cases where non-U.S. organizations involve U.S. personnel for whom NASA support is requested.
Operationally, proposals are managed through NASA's NSPIRES system, with the option to submit through Grants.gov as well, but NSPIRES registration is required in all cases. Organizations must be registered in NSPIRES, and if using Grants.gov they must be registered there too. The submitting official must be an authorized organizational representative identified in the registration, and all investigators and other participants (including co-investigators) must also be registered in NSPIRES regardless of the submission route. The solicitation strongly encourages prospective applicants to complete registration and become familiar with the submission systems well before deadlines to avoid administrative problems near closing dates.
Key dates for this specific HIDEE posting indicate a Posted Date of April 30, 2013, with an Original and Current Closing Date of May 15, 2013, and an Archive Date of June 14, 2013. The broader ROSES 2013 announcement also describes a larger sequence of due dates across its many program elements, including requested Notices of Intent for many elements and multiple proposal due dates published in ROSES tables and appendices. The ROSES structure matters because each program element, including HIDEE, has its own detailed requirements and points of contact in the appendices, and applicants are expected to follow the element-specific instructions in addition to the general ROSES rules.
For applicants looking for authoritative guidance, the announcement points to NSPIRES as the primary access point for ROSES solicitations and updates, and it notes that amendments, clarifications, and corrections are tracked via a NASA SARA web archive and RSS feed. Program-element questions are directed to the program officers listed within the ROSES appendices, while general policy and procedure questions for ROSES can be directed to the ROSES lead contact identified in the notice, Dr. Max Bernstein (NASA Science Mission Directorate), with contact details provided in the announcement.
