Amendment 4: B.5 LWS Science Final Text and Due Dates.

B.5 Living With a Star (LWS) Science emphasizes the science necessary to understand those aspects of the Sun and Earth's space environment that affect life and society. The ultimate goal of the LWS Program is to provide a scientific understanding of the system that leads to predictive capability of the space environment conditions at Earth, other planetary systems, and in the interplanetary medium. Every year the LWS Program solicits Focused Science Topics (FSTs) that address some part of this goal.

To be responsive, proposed investigations must have objectives suitable for one of the four following Focused Science Topics (FSTs) for proposals this year:

  1. Impact of Terrestrial Weather on the Ionosphere – Thermosphere;
  2. Pathways of Cold Plasma through the Magnetosphere;
  3. Understanding the Large-Scale Evolution of the Solar Wind throughout the Heliosphere through the Solar Cycle; and
  4. Towards a Quantitative Description of the Magnetic Origins of the Corona and Inner Heliosphere.

ROSES-2021 Amendment 4 releases final text and due dates for program element B.5 Living With a Star Science. Step-1 proposals are due September 8, 2021, and Step-2 proposals are due November 18, 2021.

On or about February 26, 2021, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement "Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2021" (NNH21ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2021

Questions concerning B.5 LWS Science may be directed to Simon Plunkett at simon.p.plunkett@nasa.gov and Jeff Morrill at jeff.s.morrill@nasa.gov.

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.
