Lick Observatory Other small (Lick 36-inch) Telescope Time CoverSheet Form

University of California Observatories / Lick Observatory

Other small (Lick 36-inch) Telescope Observing Time Form for proposal CoverSheet

This on-line form generates the CoverSheet of a proposal for Other small (Lick 36-inch) time. This online CoverSheet is required in order to schedule any observing time on telescopes at Lick Observatory, and also in order for the TAC to consider the merits of a scientific justification for an observing proposal. Complete the form on-line, review it in the web browser, make corrections as needed, and submit the completed form. The submission will return a CoverSheetId for that proposal. Create a PDF file containing the scientific justification. Follow the links to the proposal submission web page, and submit the proposal to justify the proposal CoverSheet. N.B. Creating a proposal CoverSheet and submitting the scientific justification are separate steps. A CoverSheet is required for any scheduled telescope time. A scientific proposal is not complete unless both steps are performed.

The active semester is 2025A.
The Executive Assistant to the Director <assistant@ucolick.org> can control the above setting and can also answer other questions about the proposal process.

The active semester 2025A is for the NORMAL process of Other small (Lick 36-inch) submission, review, and time assignment for proposals that will be evaluated based on scientific merit.
Under special circumstances pre-approved by the director in charge of Other small (Lick 36-inch), LATE additions for the current semester 2024B may still be possible.
(The RESERVED semester options allow scheduling of Other small (Lick 36-inch) for special events farther into the future.)
In order to be added to the schedule all of these require the submission of a CoverSheet.
