Submission
DKIST science proposals can only be submitted when the Proposal Call window is open for user submissions. The DKIST Proposal Architect as well as the Proposal Call announcement lists the submission deadline in GMT. While the submission window is open, the Submit button can be used to submit a proposal which has been verified and cleared of all error messages. The typical submission window is 1 month, but can be longer during the Operations Commissioning Phase of the DKIST.
