Use these resources to help you prepare your JWST Cycle 1 proposal.
The review schedule for Cycle 1 proposals has been finalized following the announcement of the new launch date for the James Webb Space Telescope.
The Exo-Webb Summer Talk Series, hosted by the Webb Transiting Exoplanet Community Early Release Science (ERS) team, is open to all.
SOFIA will reserve up to 20 hours of observing time for programs supporting JWST Early Release Science as part of their Cycle 9 call for proposals.
The uncertainties resulting from COVID-19 continue to impact the Cycle 1 schedule.
STScI will update the community and provide JWST-related resources at the 236th virtual meeting of the American Astronomical Society.
Disruptions due to COVID-19 result in further delay to the schedule for JWST Cycle 1 GO/AR proposals.
The Cycle 1 GO proposal deadline is delayed due to the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Minor revisions of GTO and ERS programs are expected.
This version of APT must be used for all JWST Cycle 1 GO proposals as it includes additional timing model changes and will be the official accounting tool for Cycle 1.
The JWST Calibration plan is designed to ensure the calibration of all science instruments and observing modes, as well as meet the needs of the approved observing programs.
Learn more about the programs selected for the Director’s Discretionary Early Release Science (DD-ERS) through a March webinar series.
