ROSES-25: F.6 Science Activation Final Text Released; NoIs Due 26 January 2026

16 December 2025

The Science Mission Directorate Science Activation Program encourages all people to actively participate in science through activities and resources developed by a collaborative network of project teams drawing on NASA SMD assets (science content, experts, data, etc.). The Science Activation program element (F.6 SciAct) of ROSES-25 solicits a portfolio of projects that together cover the full breadth of NASA science disciplines, operate across all 50 states plus U.S. territories, reach people of all ages and backgrounds, include both formal and informal learning organizations, and engage community partners to deepen and extend reach and impact. NASA seeks a balance of: (1) projects that seek to broadly share resources and opportunities that leverage NASA assets, and (2) projects that seek to meet specific community (both geographically- and interest-based) needs through NASA assets.

ROSES-2025 Amendment 29 releases final text and due dates for F.6 SciAct, which was previously TBD. There will be a pre-proposal webinar on 9 January 2026 at 2p Eastern (11a Pacific); see "Other Documents" on the NSPIRES page for F.6 SciAct for connection information. Notices of intent to propose are requested by 26 January 2026, and proposals are due 31 March 2026.

Please direct questions concerning F.6 SciAct to Lin Chambers at lin.h.chambers@nasa.gov.
