The Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) manages all basic research conducted by the U.S. Air Force. To accomplish this task, AFOSR solicits proposals for research through a general Broad Agency Announcement (BAA) and through specialized BAAs published in the Commerce Business Daily. This general BAA outlines the Air Force Defense Research Sciences Program and is reprinted in Section IV, Proposal Guidance, for your convenience. AFSOR invites proposals for basic research in many broad areas. Section II of this pamphlet describes those areas in greater detail.

Lists citations with abstracts for aerospace related reports obtained from world wide sources and announces documents that have recently been entered into the NASA Scientific and Technical Information Database.

Identifies and describes specific government assistance opportunities such as loans, grants, counseling, and procurement contracts available under many agencies and programs.
