Amendment 49: C.26 Apollo Next Generation Sample Analysis Program Final Text and Due Dates

The goal of the 2022 Apollo Next Generation Sample Analysis (ANGSA) Program is to maximize the science derived from samples returned by the Apollo Program in preparation for future lunar missions anticipated in the 2020s and beyond. To achieve this goal this 2nd ANGSA call will focus on small, high-value samples that are nearing their pristinity limit.

ROSES-2022 Amendment 49 releases Final text and due dates for ROSES C.26 ANGSA which was previously released as draft. The list of changes between draft and final text are listed in the FAQ, which is posted on the NSPIRES page for this program element under “Other documents”. Step-1 proposals are due October 17, 2022, and Step-2 proposals are due January 19, 2023.

On or about September 16, 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 http://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2022

Questions and comments concerning C.26 ANGSA may be directed to HQ-ANGSA@mail.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.
