Amendment 47: DRAFT F.12 Artemis IV Deployed Instruments Program Released for Community Comment.

When it is released as final text, F.12 Artemis IV Deployed Instruments Program will solicit proposals for instruments to be deployed on the surface of the Moon during the second crewed lunar south polar landing.

Deployed instruments will consist of autonomous instrument packages installed on the lunar surface, either robotically or by astronauts during extravehicular activities. These science packages will enable a variety of scientific investigations.

Proposed deployed instruments must address one or more of the following identified scientific objectives from NASA’s Moon to Mars (M2M) Objectives Document. The identified objectives for this call are LPS-1, LPS-2, LPS-3, HBS-1, HBS-3, HS-1, HS-2, HS-3, HS-4, PPS-1, and PPS-2. Though instruments proposed to this solicitation may address any of these identified M2M objectives, deployed instruments that accomplish higher priority science objectives as identified in the Artemis III Science Definition Team (SDT) report may be considered more favorably.

ROSES-2024 Amendment 47 releases for community comment DRAFT text for F.12 Artemis IV Deployed Instruments Program, to be included in ROSES-2024. Comments on this draft are due by October 15, 2024, to hq-artemisinstruments@mail.nasa.gov.

On or about September 13, 2024, this Amendment to the NASA Research Announcement "Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences (ROSES) 2024" (NNH24ZDA001N) will be posted on the NASA research opportunity homepage at https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2024

Questions concerning F.12 Artemis IV Deployed Instruments Program may be directed to hq-artemisinstruments@mail.nasa.gov.

A pair of interacting galaxies. The larger of the two galaxies is slightly right of center, and composed of a hazy, bright, white center and a ring of gaseous filaments, which are different shades of red and orange. Toward the bottom left and bottom right of the ring are filaments of gas spiraling inward toward the core. At the top left of the ring is a noticeable gap, bordered by two large, orange pockets of dust and gas. The smaller galaxy to its left is made of hazy white gas and dust, which becomes more diffuse farther away from its center. To this galaxy’s bottom left, there is a smaller, more diffuse gas cloud that wafts outward toward the edges. Many red, orange, and white galaxies are spread throughout, with some hazier in composition and others having more defined spiral patterns.
