Finish obsid 12005, an ACIS-S/HETG observation of the quiescent nova CP Puppis, to fit an accretion rate and estimate the white dwarf mass. Then do obsid 12007, an ACIS-S observation of the group of galaxies hosting 3C88, to study AGN heating, shocks, and cavities in galaxy groups. 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 291:21:23 (Oct 18). OCT1909A products circulated yesterday for load review at 1pm today.
