Very lucky to have an amazing team at the OU and collaborators worldwide & now #JWSTCycle2 is done various paper drafts are landing… But it’s a lot… <gulp> 194 pages 😳😲 I hope folk won’t mind if comments don’t arrive straight away… #astrodon

How do other runners decide how much to rest? Finally cracked the 6 minute barrier over 1 mile #running, for the first time in about 2 years. A v light recovery run-week during a v heavy work-week last week did something… #UKRunChat #JWSTCycle2 #astrodon

Here you go #astrodon! Someone shared this in slack. Significantly more than Cycle 1 and all Hubble cycles on this plot 😱 I'm curious how Cycle 3 will shape up since it's in only 9 months 🫠

#JWSTCycle2

And here's the final Unofficial count of #JWST #JWSTCycle2 submissions. Looks like it cracked 1600! There are going to be a lot of sad Blacker emails later this year.

What a week! This was tough. Not gonna lie. But the feeling of doing #science non-stop without having to think about a drama around the next corner is just superior to anything.

I enjoyed the #JWSTCycle2 deadline.

As a seasoned astronomer, I'm astonished

Astonished this isn't presented as a log-log plot

Reports coming in that it broke 4350 just before the deadline. #JWSTCycle2

#JWST #JWSTCycle2 proposals broke into the 4300's. It was at ~2900 on Wednesday, so, assuming ~100 submissions prior to that, we're looking at ~1500 submissions? Cycle 1 had 1,173 proposals make it to Peer Review.

Yikes!

My favorite #JWST target can only be observed during cycle 4 or 5 (time critical event) ... so imagine how much time I still have ahead to prepare it.

😅

(ok, when cycle 4 or 5 DL will come, just ignore me)

Good luck everyone for with your #JWSTCycle2 proposal. Fingers crossed ! 🤞

Student-led #JWST proposal is in, and five other #JWSTCycle2 proposals submitted by coauthors. Some excellent science here, let's hope for a positive TAC!

Been a stressful week of #JWST proposals.

The Friday Night Pint will definitely taste a little bit sweeter tonight!! #JWSTcycle2

Potential LaTeX tip (or me doing sth weird? 🤔):
I’m compiling the same .tex file on Overleaf and locally in Texmaker. Turns out I get slightly different page breaks & a shorter pdf from my local machine ✨

Do not read that video until you are done with your #deadline stuff...

Anyone on #astrodon know if Molly Peeples is tracking proposal submissions this Cycle?

If so, please share the link! And any of the plots!

#JWSTCycle2

It's official, I'm now dreaming about APT, groups, integrations, dithers, ETC....

Roll on the #JWSTCycle2 deadline

Either I'm going crazy or APT is playing with my head by taking away the 'Run Smart Accounting' button from the Proposal Information Form Editor next to the Charged Time box 😵‍💫

For folks in #JWSTCycle2 proposal-writing mode -- the TEMPLATES team investigated whether dedicated background pointings are needed for NIRSpec IFU observations!

What did we find? 1/
