Notes:
[1] Amended due dates and new program elements will be indicated with bold red text as ROSES-2020 is amended through the year.
[2] See Sections IV(b)(vi) and IV(b)(vii) of the Summary of Solicitation for a discussion of Notice of Intent (NOI) vs. a Step-1 proposal. If NOIs are requested, a due date is provided in the table. If NOIs are required by a program in order to be able to submit a proposal, it will be indicated on this table with "(mandatory)". If NOIs are replaced by a Step-1 proposal, the table entry will include that information.
[3] Program elements designated with [3] after their name participate in the Planetary Science Early Career Award Program (see C.19).
