Abstract

With the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope planned for the fall of 2021, the Space Telescope Science Institute continues preparation of the planning and scheduling ground system. After a series of Science Operations Rehearsals, we have confirmed that the Proposal Planning System is ready for ingest of the JWST Early Release Science, Guaranteed Time Observations, calibrations, and the Cycle 1 Guest Observer science programs. The Proposal Planning System consists of multiple sub-components; here, we focus on three of them: the Visit Planning System, the Visit Scheduling System, and the Observation Plan Generation System.
