Due to other demands on the Discovery Program, there will be no Discovery Program Announcement of Opportunity (AO) release in Spring 2003. The next Discovery AO is now scheduled for release in late 2003, after the New Frontiers AO solicitation period. A draft Discovery AO for community comment is planned in the July 2003 timeframe. Questions or comments about this intention to release a Discovery AO may be addressed to: Dr. Susan M. Niebur, Acting Discovery Program Scientist, by e-mail: sniebur@hq.nasa.gov, facsimile: (202) 358-3097, or telephone: (202) 358-0745.

Visit the Discovery Program Acquisition Home Page for more information on the proposal process. The Discovery Program Library will be updated prior to release of the AO.
