NASA Awards Prize Postdoctoral Fellowships for 2025


The highly competitive NASA Hubble Fellowship Program (NHFP) recently named 24 new fellows to its 2025 class. The NHFP fosters excellence and leadership in astrophysics by supporting exceptionally promising and innovative early-career astrophysicists. Over 650 applicants vied for the 2025 fellowships. Each fellowship provides the awardee up to three years of support at a U.S. institution.


Once selected, fellows are named to one of three sub-categories corresponding to three broad scientific questions that NASA seeks to answer about the universe:


How does the universe work? – Einstein Fellows

How did we get here? – Hubble Fellows

Are we alone? – Sagan Fellows


The Chandra X-ray Center at the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory in Cambridge, Massachusetts works in collaboration with the Space Telescope Science Institute and the NASA Exoplanet Science Institute and the Jet Propulsion Laboratory to oversee the NASA Hubble Fellowships. 


The NASA press release is available at https://hubblesite.org/contents/news-releases/2025/news-2025-012 and short bios and photos of the 2025 NHFP Fellows can be found at https://www.stsci.edu/stsci-research/fellowships/nasa-hubble-fellowship-program/2025-nhfp-fellows.
