Green Bank Observatory (GBO) has made a visible change to our logo for Pride month, because we want to send the clear message that we value our current and future LGBTQIA+ colleagues, friends, and family members. We send this same message internally by taking seriously our obligation to create and maintain an environment that is safe, secure, and welcoming.

We recognize that our LGBTQIA+ colleagues continue to face social and legal challenges in broader society, and we are committed to ensuring that GBO is a place where being yourself is celebrated. We are grateful to the many people who work here – those who are out, not out, and are allies – who make GBO a place at which diversity of sexual orientation and gender identity is welcomed.

At Green Bank Observatory, we aren’t content with learning about diversity and inclusion; we are continually, intentionally working to identify and change policies and practices that exclude or marginalize. Our staff are empowered and encouraged to speak up when they see a need for change; to talk with each other, and to advocate for changes in policies and practices that aren’t serving all of us.

We hope that Green Bank Observatory has proven, and continues, to be a safe and welcoming environment for our LGBTQIA+ colleagues, both internally and in the community. If we fall short, or if there are changes that we need to make, please let us know.

A total of 70 proposals requesting NSF-funded “open skies” time were submitted to the Green Bank Observatory’s Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope (GBT) for the February 1, 2022 semester 22B deadline. The table below summarizes the approved observing programs. Listed are the PI name, proposal ID, proposal title, maximum hours approved, and proposal type (Regular, Triggered, Large or External). Proposals from previous semesters that were awarded time in the 22B semester are included. The table also includes HSA and GMVA proposals that were awarded time on the GBT as a VLBI station as well as proposals accepted via external agreements with CHANDRA, Hubble Space Telescope, FERMI, SOFIA, Swift, and XMM.

For each approved program, the Proposal Finder Tool will have access to its author, title, abstract and total approved hours.

A description of the Time Allocation Committee report for 22B can be found here.
