Shift L3848. Start at 033:13:00 GMT = 08:00am 02 Feb EST End 10:00am 02 Feb SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 033.) PLAN ---- Continue running load FEB0110B.Finish obsid 10946, an ACIS-I observation of the Cyg OB2 starburst region, to study molecular cloud collapse, massive star formation and protoplanetary disk evolution. Then do obsid 11459, an ACIS-S observation of SDSS J113657.68+411318.5 as part of a survey of AGN with 10^4 to 10^6 solar mass, to probe their evolutionary relation to quasars and deduce why they are unusually X-ray bright. Then do obsid 11625, an ACIS-I observation of the low redshift galaxy group 2PIGG_m1347, to measure AGN content and study relation of the AGN to the environment. Then into perigee passage NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS --------------------- From the 9am status meeting: Three supports over the past day, no issues. One stored command sequence uplinked, on-board loads good until 36:23:45. FEB0810A products should be out this morning, for a review at either 2 or 3pm EST this afternoon. At the next pass we will run the pre-approved cap to do the monthly EIA sequencer self test. Investigation exonerated corrupted data as cause of loss of real-time feeds to ACIS and MTA midnight last Saturday. OFLS 11.7.5 is being installed on ONLINE3 for testing.
