The Division of Chemical, Bioengineering and Environmental Transport (CBET) in the Engineering Directorate of the National Science Foundation is partnering with The Center for the Advancement of Science in Space (CASIS) to solicit research projects in the general field of fluid dynamics, particulate and multiphase processes, combustion and fire systems, and thermal transport processes that can utilize the International Space Station (ISS) National Lab to conduct research that will benefit life on Earth.

To receive funding as an NSF-ISS-appropriate project, an ISS-based flight experiment should be proposed. Selected projects must be flight ready within 18 months of the award and final reports must be completed by six months post flight. If flight schedules change, investigators may modify proposed timelines, subject to review and approval by the CASIS Operations team. Prior to submitting a proposal to NSF, the Feasibility Review Form must be approved by CASIS.
