美国航天局公布 ROSES-27 科研征集时间表：拟2027年1月发布，约50个项目方向
美国国家航空航天局（NASA）科学任务理事会近日公布下一轮综合科研征集的时间安排：2027年度「空间与地球科学研究机会」（Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences，ROSES-27）拟于2027年1月发布。据报道，NASA 已于本周向科研界通报这一时间表。
据报道，ROSES-27 预计包含约50个项目方向，覆盖天体物理学、太阳物理学、地球科学、月球与行星科学、生物与物理科学以及交叉学科研究。相比之下，ROSES-2025 提供了约35个申报机会，资金总额估计在1.25亿至1.5亿美元之间。
NASA 表示，提前公布时间表是为了让大学与研究机构有时间组建团队、准备申报材料，并指导学生和青年研究人员。此前，NASA 将 ROSES-25 的发布时间调整至7月，并计划 ROSES-26 同样在7月发布，以保持年度周期一致；ROSES-25 在其后继征集发布前一直开放，NASA 已相应延长带有弹性截止日期的项目方向的申报期限。
据报道，ROSES-27 的设计与特朗普总统的国家太空政策相衔接，该政策要求研究资助面向近期任务目标；NASA 今年3月推出的 Ignition 倡议将这一导向落实为加快发现、连接科学与探索、汇聚学术界与产业界专长三项目标，NASA 称 ROSES-27 是吸纳研究人员参与这些优先事项的重要渠道。

NASA Sets ROSES-27 Solicitation Release for January 2027 with About 50 Program Elements
NASA's Science Mission Directorate has set out the timetable for its next omnibus research solicitation: Research Opportunities in Space and Earth Sciences 2027, or ROSES-27, is intended to open by January 2027 at the latest, according to reports of the agency's announcement to the research community this week.
ROSES-27 is expected to offer roughly 50 program elements, covering astrophysics, heliophysics, Earth, lunar and planetary science, biological and physical sciences and cross-disciplinary work. That is an expansion from ROSES-2025, which offered about 35 proposal opportunities and an estimated $125 million to $150 million in total funding.
NASA said disclosing the timeline early gives universities and research institutions time to assemble teams, prepare submissions and mentor students and early-career researchers. The January target breaks from NASA's recent schedule: the agency issued ROSES-25 in July instead of its customary February window and slated ROSES-26 for July as well, while extending closing dates for program elements carrying flexible or no deadlines.
The solicitation is described as a key channel for involving researchers in the priorities of President Trump's National Space Policy and NASA's Ignition initiatives, unveiled in March, which aim to speed discovery, link science and exploration, and tap expertise across academia, industry and partner organizations, according to reports.
