Finish obsid 11071, an ACIS-S/HETG observation of Eta Carina to study mass loss via line profiles, at various phases of the X-ray minima. Then go through perigee passage. Upon egress do obsid 12064, a continuation of the Eta Carina observation. NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS --------------------- Eta Carina observations are consistently not tracking one star. From the 9am status meeting: Three supports over the last 24 hours. No issues. The DEC2809A products, for the two-week schedule, were approved yesterday. This afternoon we will run the pre-approved CAP for the monthly ephemeris update. From the IST daily tagup: Water leak in control room has been reported -- waiting for feed-back. There is a planned power outage for Saturday, Jan 9. Should be about 4 hours, between comms. More discussion to follow.
