The UK Space Agency, under the national space technology programme, invites notifications of intention to bid for its national space technology programme – phase 3 call for space technology fast track projects. This supports the growth of the UK space sector by funding innovative fast track projects that accelerate the development of scientific or commercial technologies for space. Eligible activities include industrial research, feasibility studies, and experimental development. Proposals are sought within one of the following themes: •telecommunications; •sensing; •position, navigation and timing; •exploration and robotics; •access to space. Projects developing instrumentation for commercial applications are encouraged, as well as proposals that exploit the facilities and capabilities of the Satellite Applications Catapult. |

The Science and Technology Facilities Council invites proposals for research time at the Liverpool telescope. There are 280 hours available to be allocated at the Liverpool telescope, a fully robotic facility sited in the Canary Islands. Proposals should be for observation time between 1 January 2017 and 31 August 2017. The following instruments are available: •IO:O, the primary imaging charge-coupled device camera; •SPRAT, which provides high-throughput, low-resolution, long-slit optical spectroscopy; •FRODOSpec, an integral-field optical spectrograph; •LOTUS, a heavily far-blue optimised, long-slit spectrograph; •RINGO3, which provides imaging polarimetry over a ~4 arcmin diameter circular field-of-view simultaneously in three optical wavebands; •RISE, a fast-readout optical imager; •IO:I, which uses a 2048x2048 pixel Hawaii 2RG detector with a 1.7 micron cutoff. |
