NASA SCoPE Supports Early Career Scientists with Proposal Writing Workshop

NASA SCoPE Supports Early Career Scientists with Proposal Writing Workshop


The NASA SMD Community of Practice for Education (SCoPE) hosted an informational webinar in March to support applicants for the inaugural NASA SCoPE Seed Grants. This min-grant program endeavors to reduce barriers for subject matter experts (SMEs) to engage in science communications with the public. To achieve this goal, early career scientists are asked to submit a collaborative proposal with a Science Activation project that requests funding support for their engagement. In preparation for these submissions, the SCoPE team provides training and templates that support SME career development.

Early career SMEs and those from historically marginalized communities have been specifically encouraged to apply and will be prioritized in selections. These grants are one way in which the NASA SCoPE project is increasing the breadth and depth of SME engagement with the NASA Science Activation Network. For more information, connect with us at scope.asu.edu.

NASA Returns to Arctic Studying Summer Sea Ice Melt

What happens in the Arctic doesn’t stay in the Arctic, and a new NASA mission is helping improve data modeling and increasing our understanding of Earth’s rapidly changing climate. Changing ice, ocean, and atmospheric conditions in the northernmost part of Earth have a large impact on the entire planet. That’s because the Arctic region acts […]

A spiral galaxy with three prominent arms wrapping around it. The galaxy holds plenty of extra gas and dark dust between the arms. There are shining blue points throughout the arms and some patches of gas out beyond the galaxy’s edge, where stars are forming. The center of the galaxy also shines brightly. It is on a dark background where some small orange dots mark distant galaxies.

The image is divided horizontally by an undulating line between a cloudscape forming a nebula along the bottom portion and a comparatively clear upper portion. Speckled across both portions is a starfield, showing innumerable stars of many sizes. The smallest of these are small, distant, and faint points of light. The largest of these appear larger, closer, brighter, and more fully resolved with 8-point diffraction spikes. The upper portion of the image is blueish, and has wispy translucent cloud-like streaks rising from the nebula below. The orangish cloudy formation in the bottom half varies in density and ranges from translucent to opaque. The stars vary in color, the majority of which have a blue or orange hue. The cloud-like structure of the nebula contains ridges, peaks, and valleys – an appearance very similar to a mountain range. Three long diffraction spikes from the top right edge of the image suggest the presence of a large star just out of view.
