Planetary Science and Technology Through Analog Research, program element C.14 of ROSES-2018, will not be solicited this year.

The Planetary Science and Technology through Analog Research (PSTAR) program solicits proposals for investigations focused on exploring the relevant environments on Earth in order to develop a sound technical and scientific basis to conduct planetary research on other Solar System bodies.

It has been decided not to solicit PSTAR in ROSES-18 since the Planetary Science division does not foresee having the budget to fund new awards along with existing commitments. It is anticipated that PSTAR will be solicited in ROSES-2019.
