JWST Proposal System
Many Observers
1500 observations / year (3 hours / observation)
200-300 distinct observers / year
5-10 year mission
Diverse Observation Types
Imaging
Coronography
Tunable Filters
Longslit Spectroscopy
Integral Field Spectroscopy
Multi-Object Spectroscopy
It's much cheaper to provide good tools
than to help 1000 observers one-by-one.
