Decision Summary

The motion was dismissed because the petitioner attempted to materially change the proposed endeavor after filing the petition. Initially focused on aircraft engine analysis, the petitioner later added work on nuclear reactors, which the AAO considered an impermissible material change. Consequently, evidence related to the new endeavor (nuclear reactors) was not considered, and the petitioner failed to establish eligibility based on the original proposal.
