10.5 Technical Review
In Phase I, STScI does not perform technical reviews for the majority of the submitted proposals (exceptions include, e.g., Calibration, TOO and Treasury proposals). However, in Phase II a full technical feasibility review is performed for all proposals. Special attention is given to observations that are particularly complex, are human and technical resource-intensive, or require the use of limited resources (such as real-time acquisitions or TOO programs). All technically challenging or infeasible observations are flagged. Note that it is the responsibility of the PI to ensure that none of the observations violate bright objects constraints (see Section 5.1 of the HST Primer).
