The PATT and JMU Time Allocation Committees (TACs) have issued Calls For Proposals to observe with the LT in Semester 2025B, which runs from 1st July 2025 to 1st March 2026 inclusive.
As always, you may also apply for Reactive Time and Priority Z Time outside of these semester-based applications, at any time throughout the year.
Please note that for both TACs we are now using the browser-based proposal submission system on the New Robotic Telescope (NRT) website. Please click on the Submit Proposal links below, or on the "Proposal Submission" link on the sidebar at left, and follow the instructions. You will need to register an account if you don't have one already. Any queries with this system should be addressed to nrt@ljmu.ac.uk.
