Phase 1 and Phase 2 Science Goals

Science Goals are designed to capture the scientific aims of a particular observation whilst hiding the technical details of the observations from the user. The technical information is contained within Scheduling Blocks (Section 6) that are automatically generated from the (Phase-2) Science Goal.

Clicking on the top node of a Science Goal will display either a summary table of the Science Goal contents, or all of the Forms editors, depending on the user preferences. Descriptions of the six Science Goals Forms editors (General, Field Setup, Spectral Setup, Calibration Setup, Control and Performance and Technical Justification) follow.
