Announcement for Proposals (AFP) for Partnership Agreements for Embedded Creators

Background
• The Artemis program, including the updated Artemis III mission
The revised Artemis III mission profile will see NASA’s Orion spacecraft rendevouz and dock in Earth orbit with one or both Human Landing System (HLS) providers. This will set up the agency for up to two lunar landing attempts in 2028. NASA is interested in external storytellers to submit proposals for covering the accelerated Artemis campaign.
• The Space Reactor-1 Freedom mission
NASA is finally getting underway on nuclear propulsion in space and invites creators to submit proposals to cover this initiative, which will send the Skyfall payload toward Mars on the SR-1 Freedom spacecraft in 2028.
• The development of NASA’s Moon Base
NASA will build a Moon Base in three phases and invites creators to submit proposals to cover this exciting endeavor on the lunar surface.
• NASA’s current and future aeronautics efforts
The first ‘A’ in NASA sees the agency pushing the boundaries of aviation through cuttingedge flight test and other efforts. NASA invites creators to submit proposals to cover upcoming aviation efforts.
• Other programs of interest as identified in creator submissions
NASA has exciting programs across our aeronautics, space exploration, space technology development, and science missions. If Respondent would like to identify a Program other than those listed above, NASA will consider those on an ad hoc basis.
Partner Responsibilities Generally
The SAA will address, among other things, Partner’s responsibilities, including the following,
• Share in advance generalized storyboard or idea for the Project as well as planned platforms for distribution. • Identify any requests to use of NASA identifiers (including logo, mission patches, etc.) or to interview NASA personnel in connection with the Project. • Provide NASA and anticipated schedule of release. • Identify contributions required by NASA for success.
3 • Follow NASA guidelines for visiting and interacting with Program, including any restrictions on accessing, recording or using sensitive, proprietary or export-controlled equipment, locations or technology. Partner will be accompanied at all times by a Public Affairs Officer while on NASA facilities and will be expected to comply with their instructions and directions.
NASA Responsibilities Generally
The SAA will address, among other things, NASA’s responsibilities, including the following,
• Assist in research and identification of existing publicly-available NASA materials which may be used in the Project. • Review materials for technical accuracy and conformance with the SAA and NASA requirements, including appropriate use of NASA identifiers. • Facilitate and arrange, on an as available and non-interference basis, for escorted access to NASA facilities and personnel for a period of time sufficient for the Project, but not expected to exceed fourteen working days (contiguo
