<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">The 2020 executive committee of the NASA Living with a Star (LWS) Program Analysis Group (LPAG) is beginning to develop the next round of input for LWS Focused Science Topics (FSTs) for ROSES 2021 and beyond.
It is vital for the success of the LWS Science program that there be active community engagement in the development of FSTs. We are therefore asking the Heliophysics community to provide input by July 3, 2020 for these topics.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Suggested science topics should be organized around achieving the goals set out in the recently revised Strategic Science Areas (SSAs; https://lwstrt.gsfc.nasa.gov/strategic-science-areas-ssas). See Key Resources
below for more information. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Enter FST suggestions by using the following link (on or before July 3, 2020):

regarding updates to those topics is welcome through the same View Input and Comment page above. For reference, the full list of topics that were developed from the last set of community input on FSTs by the previous LPAG committee in 2018 are available in
the final report of that committee at: <a href="https://lwstrt.gsfc.nasa.gov/assets/docs/lpag/2018_LPAG_EC_Report_Final_11_30.pdf">
