UKSA Announcement of Opportunity
The UK Space Agency (UKSA) has just published an announcement of opportunity for Exploration Education and Outreach.
The purpose of the AO is to support the Agency’s education aims and objectives and to build upon the Agency’s investment in two areas:
- The ISS and SciSpacE programmes for human spaceflight and microgravity research
- The Aurora programme for robotic exploration of Mars
Proposals for human spaceflight and microgravity research may link to any element of these areas, including:
- Tim Peake’s flight
- Human spaceflight and exploration in general
- Scientific research that utilises the International Space Station
- Scientific research that uses other space environments and analogues.
£140K is available in total in the scheme and between 3 and 6 grants are expected to be awarded. More information can be found here.
