The Science Policies Group is home to the scientific and technical staff that manages the allocation of Hubble observing time, conducts the process of selecting the science program, including General Observers and Archival Researchers, and establishes science metrics to evaluate success.
Our Mission
Science Policies manages the allocation of Hubble observing time, conducts the process of selecting the science program, including General Observers and Archival Researchers, and establishes science metrics to evaluate success.
It is the Institute point of contact with the Space Telescope User Committee (STUC).
Our Vision Statement
The key objective of the Group is to optimize and maximize the scientific productivity of HST.
The goal is to foster the submission of the highest quality scientific programs through the identification of key scientific areas that require the investment of HST time to be studied and to foster broad multidisciplinary and multi-observatories collaboration.
