2.5 Funding


Subject to availability of funds from NASA, STScI will provide financial support for U.S. PIs and CoIs of approved Cycle 16 programs. Budgets are not due in Phase I, but are required in Phase II from successful proposers. Details of the STScI Funding Policies (including the definition of the term 'U.S. Investigators') are outlined in Chapter 12.

Median awards for Regular AR and Theory proposals have been about $50,000. For reference, 42 Regular AR and 12 Theory proposals were approved in Cycle 15.

ESA does not fund HST research programs. Therefore, successful ESA member-state proposers should seek any necessary resources from their respective home institutions or national funding agencies. ESA observers do, however, have access to the data-analysis facilities and technical support of the staff of the ST-ECF (see Appendix A.2), in addition to those of STScI.
