Two Stage Proposal Process
Phase I:Preparation and submission of a scientific justification, a high level description of targets and observing modes, and a feasibility analysis for the proposed program.
Phase II:Preparation and submission of detailed specifications for each observation in a selected program.
Technical review of proposals by SMO staff, independent peer-review, and selection of proposals by SMO Director.
