Shift L3146. Start at 063:13:00 GMT = 08:00am 03 Mar EST End 10:00am 03 Mar SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 063.) PLAN ---- Continue running load MAR0308B. Finish obsid 8945, an ACIS-S observation of the globular cluster PAL 10, as part of a survey for low mass X-ray binaries and cataclysmic variables. Then do obsid 9261, an ACIS-S observation of 3CRR 470 as part of a survey of massive, radio-lobe-selected galaxies to study the elation of X-ray flux to orientation. Then do obsid 9412, an ACIS-I observation of the cluster of galaxies RXCJ0237.4-2630, as part of a Chandra/HST survey of clusters to estimate precise cluster mass.

EPH temp: 112.31 degF EPH 27V: 26.84 NOTE: On Saturday, March 1, 2008, Sabina Bucher became Manager of the Flight Operations team. Sabina joined the FOT in July 2000 as a mission planner, and worked the AUG2700 week as her first schedule. She implemented MATLAB tools to greatly assist the scheduling process. After two years she became the propulsion engineer, and worked the problem of the PLine cooling. In December 2005 she became manager of the FOT Mission Planning team. She has displayed great technical and organizational skills, and we welcome her in her new position! NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS From the 9am status meeting: Ten supports over the weekend. Two problems: DSS-24 transmitter could not uplink, brought DSS-66 up for commanding and dumped data to DSS-24; then DSS-27 had a transmitter failure and DSS-24 provided TM. Two segments of MAR0308B were uplinked, on-board loads good until 067:04:43. MAR1008 products expected out later today for review tomorrow. Keith Patrick, Ron Kaichi, Dave Diaz visiting this week from Space Park, to assist with recompile testing.
