Access will be open for guest observers from the Indian science community to Astrosat, the country's first dedicated multi-wavelength space observatory from October, Indian Space Research Organisation said.

Observing time will be awarded on the basis of proposals reviewed by peers (or senior academics), it said.

ISRO in collaboration with the Inter-University Centre for Astronomy and Astrophysics (IUCAA), Pune, has set up an Astrosat Support Cell to facilitate the proposal making process and the use of AstroSat data.

It said the cell will operate o t of IUCAA and will provide resource material, tools, training and help to guest observers. A Memorandum of Understanding between ISRO and IUCAA for the operation of the Astrosat Support Cell was signed on May 5.
