Amendment 40: B.17 Eclipse Final Text and Due Dates

On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will be visible over Mexico, the USA and Canada. It is estimated that a large fraction of the population in North America will witness this natural event (https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/eclipses/future-eclipses/eclipse-2024).

B.17 Interdisciplinary Science for Eclipse (ISE) solicits development of new research and/or enhancement of existing research, applied to the 2024 total solar eclipse. This total solar eclipse will be visible from a large swath of land mass covering Mexico, the USA and Canada and the Pacific and Atlantic oceans. All proposals must demonstrate links to the 2024 solar eclipse. This program element supports scientific research and development and deployment of existing and/or new technology.

ROSES-2022 Amendment 40 releases final text and due dates for program element B.17 ISE. Step-1 Proposals are due September 9, 2022, and Step-2 proposals are due November 8, 2022.

On or about August 8, 2022, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement "Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2022" (NNH22ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2022

Questions concerning B.17 ISE may be directed to Madhulika ("Lika") Guhathakurta at madhulika.guhathakurta@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.
