After reviewing the data it was determined that the commands issued (out of contact) were correct, but that the HRC door had been partially open (30 deg) thus obscuring two of the FIDS (HRC-I 3 and 4). A real time CAP was run successfully (CAP 363) to acquire the three FIDS. When this CAP ran 4 of 5 stars were acquired,then 1 was lost. This 4th star was re-acquired later after about 4 minutes. This star had a camera magnitude of 10.1. 2) A Flight directors board telecon will be held at 4:00pm today to go over proposed changes to the ACA K constants to help acquisition of faint stars.
