Amendment 49: Corrections to C.13 STRIDE

C.13 Science Transport and Robotic Innovation for Deployment and Exploration (STRIDE) solicits proposals from U.S. industry to conduct design studies of advanced robotic surface and aerial mobility systems with payload transportation and deployment capability for Mars surface operations, and, where applicable, early-stage prototyping of hardware for the same purpose.

ROSES-2025 Amendment 49 makes several changes to C.13 STRIDE: in Table C.13-1 "requirements" has been changed to page limit, in Sections 2.3, 3.3.2, and 5.1 the word "should" has been changed to "must", and Section 3.3.2 has been clarified. New text is in bold and deleted text is struck through.

Neither Notices of Intent nor Step-1 proposals are requested for this program, and the due date is unchanged: proposals are due March 31, 2026. Updated FAQs have also been posted under other documents on the NSPIRES page for C.13 STRIDE.
