Re: NASA FRC grant information

Since today is the expected date for hearing from NASA, does anyone know what time they normally come out?

I believe Dave jokingly/seriously said they had til the end of the day Hawaii time last year to announce the recipients:

2007: Posted to CD 5:24 AM 11/20 (which, without checking, sounds like close to midnight Hawaii time 11/19 to me....)
http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...8&postcount=27

2006: Posted to CD 10:08 PM http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...NASA+recipient

2005: Posted to CD 4:27 PM http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...NASA+recipient

So if you don't hear anything by 5:24 AM tomorrow, the sky is falling.

Not until after you chew off most of your fingernails, Greg . I'm not 100% sure whether this is a "morning" thing or "by midnight" thing. In fact the application info states "around Nov. 12" which gives NASA some leeway.

Actually the application states
Quote:
NASA will review submitted applications and inform teams of their selection via the NASA Robotics Alliance Project web site (http://robotics.nasa.gov). It is our plan to announce selections no later than Wednesday, 12 November 2008.

so I guess midnight is fine. You would think with the phoenix off their plates now they would get this stuff done early :-P

I'm rather nervously awaiting the news... our team somewhat depends on it for this year.

Hm..that's actually a bad thing. =/ I know a lot of teams depend on it year by year but they do state that your team should be prepared to deal with your budget without the grant, don't they? If you'd like some help with raising 6grand, this is the place to get help.

Yes, they do. We do have other options we are pursuing, but those could all fall through. We will be off of it by next year, though.

To be eligible for a grant you need $6k in matching funds, so shouldn't you be OK for at least an entry fee?

I've been kind of out of the loop this year; I hadn't thought about that. We'll be in about the same boat as last year, then.

We are still putting the finishing touches on the final decisions. They will be announced a little later this evening. Except for the decision on Greg's team. We are going to hold off on that one until at least Monday..
