1. CALL FOR PROPOSALS FOR P79

The Call for Proposals for observations at the ESO telescopes during Period 79 (April 1 - September 30, 2007) has been released. CRIRES on UT1 is offered for the first time, and AMBER will be available with 3 ATs as well as with 3 UTs as of start of Period 79. LABOCA on APEX is expected to be offered via a delta call to be issued in late 2006 or early 2007.

Deadline for proposal submission is September 29, 2006, 12:00 noon CEST.

The full Call for Proposals and the ESOFORM electronic submission package can be obtained at http://www.eso.org/observing/proposals/index.html.

In order to avoid last-minute problems, users are strongly encouraged to fully verify their proposal well ahead of its actual submission, using a preliminary version including all necessary, fixed-format technical information, but possibly incomplete or non-final text descriptions (see ESOFORM manual for details).
