SOT shift report 2002-12-13 L1240 Written at 2002:347:14:50 UTC = 09:50 am Dec-13-2002 EST End 11:00:00 AM EST SOT Lead: Ed Kellogg PLAN ---- OBSID 3147. NGC 7469 2002:347:12:16, ACIS-S HETG - SIMULTANEOUS CHANDRA-HST OBSERVATIONS OF SEYFERT 1 GALAXY NGC 7469 - understanding the circumnuclear absorbing gas and its influence on the radiation escaping from AGN has additional important implications for the radiative input to the IGM and the origins of the X-ray background. RADIATION SUMMARY ----------------- Solar soft proton flux is Low. (http://www.srl.caltech.edu/ACE/ASC/) Significant solar activity yesterday: Solar flare activity was low. A total of 13 C class flares were recorded during the day. (http://www.dxlc.com/solar/) CMEs reported for past two days: December 10-12: No obviously geoeffective CMEs noted.

The two week DEC2302 load is in work, with products to be released by the end of today or Monday - Tuesday. S/C - Yesterday at the Flight Director's Board, we closed out the investigation of Invalid Block Size (001B) Errors and associated Invalid Telemetry Reply Block (0226) Errors logged during SSR commanding of the spacecraft, and during SSR testing on ASVT. This was the culmination of about two years' investigation. Kudos to Rich Myers! See Flight Note 406 "001B/0226 Error Investigation." GOT/IST: There were some problems sending email this morning. DATA:- SOT: GOES x-ray flux: No significant activity today. Yesterday's enhancements did not lead to observable CMEs. Quiet weekend ?
