success rates, excluding the zeros, were from 50% for GA to less than 10% for CO.
Anyone who tried 8 or more got some.
About a quarter goes to CA, about twice the mean per capita.
MD seems really overrepresented.
MD would include STScI and NASA-Goddard. So overrepresented? Not so much.
To which absurdly oversubscribed grants/telescope program is this referring?
Hubble observing opportunities?
Think of it as a challenge.
It should be very easy for you, I am pretty sure you personally are a significant fraction of the WA entry!
HST time it is then, which would explain MD. I was assuming it was something newly released (NSF season is coming due, in extragalactic at least). Did you find tasty data somewhere?
Yup, Hubble awards, cycle 16 - in anticipation of the next round.
I was catching up on my backlog of glossy bits of paper while stuck in a tin can hurtling at mach 0.9 10 km up
I have an odd urge to yell "we're number 1, we're number 1"
I'm not stopping you.
On the internet, nobody has to know when you gloat.
