This funding opportunity supports U.S. institutions in developing citizen science projects that engage the public in space and Earth science research to further NASA's mission.

The ROSES 2025: F.9 Citizen Science Seed Funding Program, offered by NASA’s Science Mission Directorate (SMD), aims to support research and development in space and Earth sciences through citizen science initiatives. The program funds projects that engage the public in scientific research to advance NASA’s mission.
