OBSERVATORY / UNIVERSITY / EDUCATION
Start with a scientific question.
Build an actual collaboration.
The proposed initial scope is to repeat timing analyses for a bounded set of exoplanet transits. This page does not declare an institution’s participation, telescope-time award or endorsement of SpaceTRC.
Scientific pilot
Start with about 20 targets, reducing scope when data quality requires. Identify an actual lead and separate reviewer; freeze target population, success measures and stopping rules before seeing results.
Observation and data scope
Record instrument, filter, timestamps, raw-data access, applied calibrations and sharing rights. Robotic observation requires an actual provider account and allocation; this release supplies planning and analysis of prepared light curves.
Original contribution and reuse rights
Public NASA/Gaia data are not presented as SpaceTRC-owned observations. Observer/processor credit and reuse terms follow actual contributions. Personal information and raw private files are excluded from the public board.
Institutional value
Define needs for private workspaces, processing, method review and educational programmes separately. Determine a paid pilot or service scope after measuring time savings and replication quality. This page initiates no payment or subscription.
Participation preparation file
Prepare the question, target selection, instruments, data rights, actual leads and measures. The template is neither an agreement nor an observing-time allocation. An institutional application needs a separate explicit submission.
