FUSE User Support and Mission Planning Contacts NASA/GSFC Guest Investigator Site Phase 2 submittal instructions
Phase 2 templates will be mailed out the week of September 17 and are due back on October 15.Formal letters of proposal acceptance and rejection, including TAC comments and perceived strengths and weaknesses of each proposal will be sent out by NASA headquarters by the end of September. FUSE was launched on 24 June 1999, with a nominal three-year mission lifetime expected after an initial checkout period. Normal Science operations began 01 December 1999, and Cycle 2 is now in full swing. Averaged over the three years, more than half of the available observing time will be open for observations by Guest Investigators (GIs) selected by NASA through the normal peer-review process. The GI program is coordinated by NASA Project Scientist Dr. George Sonneborn. GI proposals will be solicited in three approximately 1-year cycles, with less GI time available in the first year, and more in each successive cycle.
The proposal process for Cycle 3 is similar to that which was used for
Cycle 1 & 2. This process requires electronic
submission and processing and is divided into two phases; 1 and 2.
1) Filling out and submitting a "Cover Page" web-form at the NASA HQ site
2) Filling out and submitting a LaTeX (keyword-driven) template form.
3)
Submitting 12 printed copies of the proposal.
The purpose of Phase 1 is proposal selection only, and no budget
information was requested.
1) Checking and complementing the phase 2 templates being sent out from JHU
2) Verifying formatting and syntax of forms using the p2test@pha.jhu.edu account
3) Submitting a checked final phase 2 form to the p2submit@pha.jhu.edu account Budget information for successful proposers will be requested by NASA directly after the Phase 1 selection process. The schedule for Cycle 3 looks like this:
NRA Release: February 16, 2001 Notice of Intent due: March 30, 2001 Phase 1 Proposal Due Date: May 11, 2001 Announce Accepted Proposals: September 14, 2001 Cycle 3 Phase 2 Inputs due: October 15, 2001 Cycle 3 Begins: December 1, 2001 Any questions about the FUSE GI program, its policies, or its funding should be directed to NASA Project Scientist George Sonneborn at NASA/Goddard.
