The deadline for proposal submission is Friday January 23, 2004, 8:00 pm EST. |
Please submit well before the deadline if possible, to avoid possible last-minute hardware or overloading problems, or network delays/outages. Late proposals will not be considered.
Questions about policies and technical issues should be addressed to the STScI Help Desk (see Section 1.5) well before the deadline. While we attempt to answer all questions as rapidly as possible, we cannot guarantee a speedy response in the last week before the deadline.
Cycle 13 proposals must be submitted electronically. Starting in Cycle 12, a java-based software tool, APT (the Astronomer's Proposal Tools; see Section 1.4.4) is the new interface for all Phase I and Phase II proposal submissions for HST.
|
The Phase I LaTeX templates that have been in use for many years will not be accepted in Cycle 13. |
A Phase I proposal consists of two parts:
Both get submitted to STScI directly from within APT. Note that Student Principal Investigators should also send a certification letter from their faculty advisor (see Section 2.3.3).
Please study Chapter 7, Chapter 8 and Chapter 9 carefully. Please do so well before the submission deadline, to give the STScI Help Desk (see Section 1.5) ample time to answer any questions that you may have about the new procedures.
