Shift L4117. Start at 302:12:00 GMT = 08:00am 29 Oct EDT End 10:00am 29 Oct SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 302.) PLAN ---- Continue running load OCT2510B. Continue obsid 11101, an ACIS-I continuation of the observation of the type Ia supernova remnant G299.2-2.9, to study the structure and the distribution of ejected elements, to test the explosion mechanism. Then do obsid 11552, an ACIS-S observation of the gravitationally lensed quasar HE0435-1223 to try to measure the size of the X-ray accretion disk via microlensing. Then do obsid 13002, an ACIS-S observation of the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) J003756.0-091500 as part of a survey of a sample of ULX discovered by ROSAT. NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS --------------------- From the 9am status meeting: Three supports over the past day. No issues. Successfully ran preapproved CAP 682 to reinitialize the thruster command processing subfunction. NOV1010A products were released yesterday for review this noon. Monday we will run two pre-approved CAP's to set up for the eclipse season which starts Tuesday. These will activate SCS 29, and dump and clear EPS counter.
