Re: 2015 NASA Grants are open

Does anyone have some insight into this?
I believe, at least for Program Growth grants, if all first and second year grants are not given out, grants are then given to veteran teams once those supplies are exhausted. This is how 2791 was rewarded a NASA grant 2011. It's not a sure thing by any means, and I don't know if the same rule applies to Regional Challenge grants, but you can't get what you don't apply for.
