Now that the dust has settled I’m thrilled to announce that our 60-hour survey of Warm Jupiter atmospheres was approved for #JWSTCycle4! Looking forward to working with great people on some great science!

What a week. But I was delighted to see the breadth of planetary atmospheres and ionospheres science awarded in #JWSTCycle4, a departure from the small-bodies/satellites science we've seen in previous cycles. This'll be a treasure trove for the giant planets: www.stsci.edu/jwst/science...

For our #JWSTCycle4 proposal on atmospheric characterization (unrelated to habitability nor astrobiology), the 1st weakness is "not clear enough what implications would it have for other classes of space creatures" - by reviewer 1 not reviewer 2

Think about it.
If 11% of proposals were accepted this cycle.
And the first quintile is the top 20%.
Then only 9% of proposals are first quintile rejects.
Which makes it the hardest thing to achieve in JWST proposal land.
We're the real winners
(laughing so we don't cry)

The #JWSTCycle4 proposal I wrote out of spite in two hours on the day of the deadline got a first quintile reject, which I take as a win 🫶

Notification letters for #JWSTCycle4 came out today. I was the PI of 4 and Co-I for 5 more. Happy to say one of mine was accepted! I will be looking for molecular water on asteroids in archival JWST data. I can't wait to get started! 🔭🧪

Doh! I was onboard a survey proposal that got declined. 2377 proposals requested over 75,000 hours in Cycle 4, compared to the 8500 hours available. A total of 50 survey proposals were submitted and 8 were approved.

If result notifications take as long to come in as these "JWST Proposal file has been successfully processed by STScI" emails then we are all going to be suffering for many hours next spring. #JWSTCycle4 🪐🔭

Thoughts in the #JWSTCycle4 aftermath:
I really think the way this cycle shakes out is going to help push us towards randomized selection.
Without the space to get into nuance, the top ~X% of proposals is going to be that much harder to differentiate from the rest.

Me: *clicks submit at 4:59pm->5:00pm* what's a proposal deadline if you aren't re-submitting proposals at the absolute last minute...
Co-I: *5:02pm* hold my beer 🍺

I don't trust chatgpt to write my #JWSTCycle4 proposals, but it sure can write a song about my all-nighter coffee ☕️
🎵🌟Coffee coffee in my cup, Keeps me going lifts me up.
Telescope deadline is near, Through the night I persevere.
Oh that coffee aroma wells, Keeps me sharp, my focus swells.🎵
