Unleash Your Potential: NASA's FAIMM Program for Moon and Mars Exploration
Are you ready to embark on a groundbreaking journey to the Moon and Mars? NASA's C.12 Foundational Artificial Intelligence for the Moon and Mars (FAIMM) program is your gateway to becoming a key player in the future of space exploration. This unique initiative is designed to empower individual researchers to join forces with a diverse team of experts, crafting cutting-edge science and exploration applications for the next generation of large, general artificial intelligence (AI) models, known as Foundation Models (FMs).
The Power of Foundation Models:
These FMs are the secret weapon in NASA's arsenal, leveraging massive datasets to revolutionize science and exploration on the Moon and Mars. They can be applied to a wide range of AI and Machine Learning (ML) tasks, from data analysis to decision-making, opening up a world of possibilities for scientific discovery and technological advancement.
Collaborative Excellence:
FAIMM is all about collaboration and interdisciplinary teamwork. Selected participants will collaborate with fellow researchers, existing project team members, and AI experts, creating a dynamic environment for innovation and knowledge sharing. Whether you're a seasoned AI professional or a newcomer to the field, this program welcomes all, offering an opportunity to expand your skills, expertise, datasets, and scientific disciplines.
No Experience Required:
One of the most exciting aspects of FAIMM is its inclusive nature. Prior AI/ML experience is not mandatory! This program is designed to foster growth and learning, providing a supportive environment for researchers from diverse backgrounds to contribute their unique perspectives and talents.
ROSES-2025 Amendment 37:
NASA's ROSES-2025 program has embraced FAIMM as a new and exciting program element. This amendment introduces FAIMM as a dedicated initiative within the ROSES-2025 framework, offering a structured pathway for researchers to engage with Foundation Models for the Moon and Mars.
Key Details:
- No Step-1 proposals or NOIs are required for this program element.
- Proposals are due by April 28, 2026.
- Stay tuned for the official amendment posting on January 13, 2025, on the NASA research opportunity homepage: https://solicitation.nasaprs.com/ROSES2025.
