Proposals for JWST are quite complex as they need to incorporate a complete observing program specification in the Astronomers Proposal Tool (i.e. what are traditionally known as ‘Phase 1’ and ‘Phase 2’ are combined for JWST).<span aria-label="" class="c-mrkdwn__br" data-stringify-type="paragraph-break" style="box-sizing: inherit; display: block; height: 8px;"></span>Additionally many Australian astronomers have obtained Cycle 1 or public data and are working on data reduction.
