The ITP offers up to 5% of the observing time, evenly spread throughout the year and the lunar cycle. A proposal can request up to 15 nights/year of observing time. A proposal can cover a period of up to two consecutive years, i.e. in this case, up to a maximum of 30 nights / 160 hours per telescope can be requested. Proposals must include a justification of the time requested on each telescope.
The complete Call for Proposals document can be downloaded here. Further details and an application form can be obtained from the CCI ITP web site. Applications are made directly to the CCI, but for LT technical enquiries, please contact our Phase 1 Support or the Support Astronomer.
