PLAN
----
Continue running load MAY1109B. Finish obsid 10881, an ACIS-S/HETG
observation of Cyg X-2 to discover the changes in accretion rate by
observing changes in lines and continuum over a cycle of Cyg X-2's
states. Then do obsid 10393, an ACIS-S observation of the nearby,
luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) ESO 420-G013, as part of a study of a
Spitzer sample to study AGN, X-ray binaries, gas and supernova
remnants in LIRG.

Ascending through 86380 km. ACIS focal plane temperature -118.4 degC.  
EPH temp: 99.88 degF   

NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS
ACIS focal plane is 1.5 deg warm (at -118.4) during a Cyg X-2 observation.
Since this is a grating observation perhaps the sensitivity to gain
isn't a problem.

From the 9am status meeting:
Three supports over the past day. DSS-54 had antenna problems so
started 1/2 hour late, but all requirements were met. One stored
command sequence was uplinked, on-board loads good until 135:21:45.

MAY1809A products are in work. May be out late today for a review tomorrow.
