Proposals containing non-archival (e.g. new) observations will require the Guest Investigator to provide a statement of feasibility as part of the scientific justification submitted with the proposal. Feasibility implies that the proposed program must justify the need for the requested exposure time for each observation, noting the required signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) and spectral resolution, expected flux, and any other information relevant to the observation (e.g., wavelength, region of interest, spectral flux distribution, emission line intensities). The tools listed below can be used to form the technical basis for the arguments presented with the scientific justification.

The Planning Wizard can be used to automate the execution of each tool from a list of positions or ARK RPS 'save' file.

We strongly recommend that every Guest Investigator include the results from the tools in the list below as part of the scientfic justification:

We recommend that every Guest Investigator review, but not necessarily report, the results from the tools in the list below:
