Proposals must be submitted by August 21, 2026, via Grants.gov or MyGrants, and applicants must hold an active Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) and be registered in SAM.gov; foreign entities are exempt from NCAGE code requirements unless engaged with the Department of Defense.

Proposals must address specific objectives through a structured narrative not exceeding 15 pages, including a problem statement, project design, logic model, key personnel with justification and biosketches capped at two pages each, and a timeline limited to one page, all formatted in 12-point Times New Roman with one-inch margins and submitted in English. Budgets must follow the Federal Financial Report format, include a detailed line-item breakdown in Excel, and may incorporate indirect costs at a de minimis rate of 10% of Modified Total Direct Costs if no NICRA is held, or through an approved NICRA if available. Direct costs must be clearly justified, with no double-charging permitted between direct and indirect expense categories; equipment purchases over $10,000 require prior justification and insurance compliance with 2 CFR 200, while supplies under $10,000 must be separately tracked.

The program builds on the 2025 U.S. Space Forum and aims to advance practical implementation of international obligations and non-binding guidelines endorsed by the United Nations Committee on the Peaceful Uses of Outer Space, with a focus on fostering innovation ecosystems, promoting commercial space engagement, building institutional and workforce capacity, and expanding economic opportunities in emerging space economies.
