ROSES 2023: E.8 Physical Sciences Informatics
Funding Agency:
- NASA
The Physical Sciences Informatics (PSI) system (https://www.nasa.gov/PSI) is an online database of completed physical science reduced-gravity flight experiments conducted on the International Space Station (ISS), Space Shuttle flights, Free Flyers, or commercial cargo flights to and from the ISS, and of related ground-based studies. The goals of the PSI system are to: a) promote investigations making use of currently available experimental data resulting in more scientists participating in reduced-gravity research; b) allow new areas of research and discovery to occur more quickly through open access; and c) accelerate the "research to product or publication" timeline through the rapid sharing of data. The PSI system allows researchers access to the detailed experimental data obtained from flight research conducted as part of the Physical Sciences Research Program in support of NASA's Biological and Physical Sciences (BPS) Division. See the International Space Station Researcher’s Guide to the Physical Sciences Informatics System for more information. This PSI call for proposals is part of NASA SMD's ROSES-2023 solicitation. All proposers are encouraged to read the ROSES-2023 Summary of Solicitation, to learn the default guidelines. The default content and format of proposals are described in Section IV(b) of the ROSES-2023 Summary of Solicitation. Table 1 of ROSES-2023 provides a list of the default rules and parts of proposals. Some of these defaults are modified in the sections below. In the cases of any conflicts, this program element takes precedence, followed by the ROSES-2023 Summary of Solicitation, and last the 2023 NASA Proposer’s Guide (formerly called the Guidebook for Proposers). Statutes and regulations always apply and take precedence over any solicitation or guidance.
5 proposals with average awards of $125K for first year and $150K for second year. Deviations from these targeted figures are possible.
