Dear Astronomers,

The Australian Astronomical Observatory (AAO) operates a service observing program at the 4-metre Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT) for proposals requiring less than 6 hours of observing time. 

The application process for AAT Service Time is changing. Starting from 1st February, 2015, applications will be accepted on a continuous basis. Proposals will be reviewed and graded as they are received. Review could take up to four weeks, after which the primary investigator will be notified of their grade. Successful proposals will be added to the service queue at that time. Proposals will remain active until observed, or until 18 months has passed since they were first added to the queue. 

Applications will be accepted through the AAO's Proposal Management System, AAO Lens.

Other aspects of the service program will remain the same. The program is described in detail on our website:
http://www.aao.gov.au/science/observing/apply/service 

The following instruments are available for service observations:
2dF+AAOmega, IRIS2, UCLES, KOALA+AAOmega, 2dF+HERMES.


Regards,

Andy Green
Outgoing AAT Service Coordinator

Incoming AAT Service Coordinator
