PLAN
----
Continue running load AUG0811A. Finish obsid 9133, an ACIS-S
observation of the globular cluster M28 to measure the position and
magnetic field of a millisecond pular and constrain the neutron star
equation of state. Then do obsid 9410, an ACIS-I observation of the
cluster of galaxies RXCJ0105.5-2439, to study the X-ray vs. the
gravitational lensing method of estimating cluster mass.

NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS
From the 9am status meeting:
Nine supports over the weekend. No issues. Three stored command segments
uplinked, on-board loads are good until 228:03:44.

AUG1808 products will be out this morning for review today.

Coronal stream hit the Earth last Saturday, elevating the soft solar
protons a factor of about 50, and decaying since then. This is still
well below levels of concern to ACIS.
