NASA ANNOUNCES AERONAUTICS RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES

WASHINGTON - NASA's Aeronautics Research Mission Directorate has released its "Research Opportunities in Aeronautics 2008" announcement. The initial version of this announcement solicits research in support of the Supersonics Project.

The goals of the Supersonics Project are to address technical challenges associated with supersonic flight over land and to develop technologies required to build future high mass Mars entry systems that will enable large missions for the exploration of Mars and other planets.

NASA anticipates that educational institutions, nonprofit organizations and industry engaged in fundamental research will be the primary award recipients for this announcement. Specific evaluation criteria, deadlines and points of contact for this research topic and other project areas are available in the announcement at:

NASA plans to announce additional research topics in other project areas in the near future. For updates, visit NASA's Research Opportunities Web site at:
