Amendment 25 C.21 SIMPLEx moves from ROSES to SALMON-3

SIMPLEx supports the formulation and development of science investigations that require a spaceflight mission that can be accomplished using small spacecraft. All proposed investigations must be responsive to the goals of the Planetary Science Division, as described in the 2014 NASA Science Plan.

This amendment announces that C.21 Small Innovative Missions for Planetary Exploration (SIMPLEx) will not be solicited as part of ROSES-2017. Instead, it will be solicited as a program element appendix of the Third Stand Alone Missions of Opportunity Notice (SALMON-3) NNH17ZDA004O. When this occurs, it will be announced as an Amendment to SALMON-3 through the NSPIRES mailing list.

Questions concerning SIMPLEx may be directed to Doris Daou at Doris.Daou-1@nasa.gov.
