Documentation for APT
Most APT documentation is available from this web site. Look to the left and choose "Training Materials" or one of the step-by-step roadmaps.
After you have brought up APT you will see a "Help" menu on the top menu bar. From here you can also bring up the documents that will help you to learn APT.
Phase I: You can bring up Phase I Specific APT Training Materials to learn about using APT to submit your Phase I proposal. There are also links to the Phase I Call for Proposals, HST Primer, and Instrument Handbooks. These are the same documents you will find on the HST Website.
Phase II: You can bring up Phase II Specific APT Training Materials to learn about using APT to submit your Phase II proposal. There are also links to the Phase II Instructions and Instrument Handbooks. These are the same documents you will find on the HST Website.
