This NASA Science Mission Directorate (SMD) Lunar Discovery and Exploration Program (LDEP) intends to solicit for a suite of lunar science and technology instruments via ROSES-25 program element F.10 Payloads and Research Investigations on the Surface of the Moon (PRISM) once it is released as final text.

F.10 PRISM will seek investigations that address the science goals of 1) any SMD division, e.g., Planetary Science, Earth Science, Heliophysics, Astrophysics, and Biological and Physical Sciences, 2) objectives of the Exploration Systems Development Mission Directorate (ESDMD), and 3) any technology demonstration goals of the Space Technology Mission Directorate (STMD) that advance capabilities for science, exploration, or commercial development of the Moon.

Proposals must be science driven, with some technology demonstration, development, and/or maturation within the proposed project allowed, as long as proposed instrument suites are focused primarily on science investigations and the technology demonstrations and exploration investigations support those science investigations.

ROSES-2025 Amendment 3 greatly expands the TBD placeholder text for F.10 PRISM [PDF] and provides an estimated schedule.

Please address questions to Ryan Watkins, Exploration Science Strategy and Integration Office (ESSIO) Program Scientist at: HQ-PRISM@mail.nasa.gov.
