Swift Schedule Information

The following form allows you to query the the current and upcoming Swift observing schedule. There are two types of Swift schedule. The Pre-Planned Science Timeline (PPST): This is the plan of observations for Swift. Note this may be altered by GRBs and uploaded TOOs. As-Flown Science Timeline (AFST): This is the log of observations performed by Swift, including uploaded TOOs and GRBs. So if you are interested in which observations are scheduled for the upcoming few days, look at the PPST. If you wish to see what Swift actually observed, look at the AFST.
