NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS From the 9am status meeting: Three supports, no issues, one load segment uplinked, on-board loads good through 097:08:34. Load review of APR0703A gave some minor cleanups, APR0703B will be out this morning for an email-only review this afternoon. ASVT issues have prevented checkout of the products to swap to VDE-B side. These are believed resolved, and will attempt again this afternoon. Gyro 1 current was observed to increase very rapidly from 122 to 128 ma yesterday. The levels are well within what has been observed although the change is a little more rapid than previously. No cause for action. Telecon at 1pm today to review Rino's plan for handling eclipses for the remainder of the mission. 405 244 5060 #1165, see file /pool14/chandra/Eclipse_Handling_Plan.doc The 3rd string was returned to operations as of about 7:15pm last night. Quick look data: OBSID Target Time Comment ----- ------ -------------- ------- Seven more survey fields: F7, F53, SS23, SS15, SD40, SS10, F47: There are no recognizable targets, but no obvious problems. Jen and Eric both note that there are many poor star fields for this series. ------------------------------------------------------- Dan Schwartz, MS #3 das@head-cfa.harvard.edu phone: (617)495-7232 FAX: (617)495-7356 cell phone: (617)512-5627 pager: 877-693-7198 PIN 693-7198 or e-mail 6937198@archwireless.net -------------------------------------------------------
