Finish obsid 11519, an ACIS-S ToO observation of M87 to compare the X-ray light curve to that of the TeV flare being observed. Then do obsid 11304, continuing the ACIS-I observation of a galactic bulge field with deep optical imaging, to study structure and formation of the bulge. Then go through 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 134:20:30.
