SOFIA

SOFIA will be the largest airborne observatory in the world, and will make observations that are impossible for even the largest and highest of ground-based telescopes. SOFIA will enable studies of the universe in the infrared spectrum. And will be a major factor in the development of observational techniques, of new instrumentations and in the education of young scientists and teachers in the discipline of infrared astronomy.

STScI provides proposal preparation software (APT) for SOFIA.
