Yes they have. I'm not speaking for NASA, I'm not privy to there information, but I can tell you that I have seen applications that didn't answer the questions they asked. And the applicants didn't receive the grants.

It didn't take a NASA rocket scientist to figure out they were not going to get the grant.

It is worth studying the questions, and then stepping back and understanding why they are asking the question. If a team can directly answer the question and assure NASA that they will be a successful team, then the likelihood of having a successful grant application will go up significantly.

To directly answer your question: YES - teams have been denied a grant.
