Dear Physics of the Cosmos (PhysCOS) community members,

The Astrophysics Division at NASA Headquarters will be restarting much of the work of the Cosmic Origins, Exoplanet Exploration, and Physics of the Cosmos Program Analysis Groups (PAGs) and their affiliated Science Analysis Groups (SAGs), Science Interest Groups (SIGs), and Science and Technology Integration Groups (STIGs). This restart will include reviewing the terms of reference and other documentation for each PAG and their active SAGs, SIGs, and STIGs to be sure that they are in compliance with recent Presidential Executive Orders, and thus the restarts will take some time and may not all occur at the same time. The Executive Committees for all three PAGs will resume meeting in the next two weeks.

We appreciate the community’s patience as we worked with our management to develop the plan forward.

Wishing you the best,

Dr Francesca Civano & Dr Brian Humensky
PhysCOS Chief Scientists, NASA GSFC

Dr Bernard Kelly
PhysCOS Support Scientist, NASA GSFC
