NuSTAR Guest Observer Programs: Overview


While NuSTAR was initially approved by NASA as a 2-year Principal Investigator-led (PI-led) mission, NuSTAR has now been approved to continue operations through 2025 (subject to review by the 2025 NASA Astrophysics Senior Review of Operating Missions) and to have a dedicated Guest Observer (GO) Program.
