NASA If you have questions about conducting your research or managing your grants during the COVID-19 epidemic, NASA's Science Mission Directorate has published an FAQs/Guidance document. The document outlines their plans for paying researchers on soft money, renewal and application timelines, indirect cost rates, and more.

NASA also maintains a web page with helpful resources including NASA facilities statuses, transcripts and video of Administrator Bridenstine’s briefings, and policies and guidance for NASA employees and researchers. 

Lastly, in case you missed it, on 12 March NASA released this initial guidance on federal financial assistance as labs and missions were ramping down to essential-only staff or full closure.
