For Open-Time Users Future schedule The ASTRO-F satellite was successfully launched on February 21 21:28 (UT) from Uchinoura Space Center, Japan and has been re-named "AKARI". After verification of the satellite and onboard instruments, we will start astronomical observations. The Time Allocation Committee (TAC) meeting for the Open Time was held on January 16, 2006 and concluded in their recommendations, in which each proposal was given a ranking of either 1, 2, or 3. The rank of each proposal has been communicated to the proposers. After the performance verification of the scientific instruments, we will inform the proposers of the details of the TAC recommendations around the beginning of May. The successful proposers will be informed as to the number of granted pointing opportunities and the flight performance of the scientific instruments. They will be asked to resubmit a revised target list that conforms to the granted number of pointings. The deadline of the resubmission will be around the beginning of June. We will make observation planning simulations and inform the proposers of the results, which will indicate which observations can be executed and which cannot due to the visibility constraints based on the real satellite orbit and resources. The successful proposers will be given an opportunity to revise their target list once again according to these results. This iteration is planned to be completed, and the open time observation program fixed by mid-July.
