Shift L3316. Start at 232:12:00 GMT = 08:00am 19 Aug EDT End 10:00am 19 Aug SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 232.) PLAN ---- Continue running load AUG1808D. Finish obsid 9484, a GTO survey of the Carina Nebula with ACIS-I to study high-mass star formation and feeback into the intersteller medium. Then do 9383, an ACIS-I pointing at the low luminosity cluster of galaxies cl2220-5228 to study the luminosity vs. temperature relation. Then do obsid 9077, an ACIS-I GTO observation of the young, radio pulsar J0940-5428, as part of a survey of pulsars and pulsar wind nebulae, and to find targets for GLAST and HESS telescopes. Finish this orbit with obsid 8958, an ACIS-S observation of the globular cluster NGC 6681, as part of a survey to find low mass X-ray binaries and cataclysmic variables in globular clusters. Then into perigee passage.

One stored command sequence uplinked, on-board loads good until 236:11:00. AUG2508 products in work. A ToO is being factored in. Probably can review tomorrow. Looking at next Tuesday afternoon for discussion of the NSM event. Sun is quiet, expected to stay quiet.
