NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS From the 9am status meeting: Three supports, no issues. On board loads good until 222:11:32 (end of the AUG0203A load). AUG1103B was reworked yesterday, all approvals are in for AUG1103C which is now ready for FD sign-off. Eclipse data from yesterday looked good. Last eclipse of current season will be tomorrow. The ASVT TCTS issue is believed to be fixed. Further analysis is proceeding, with the safemode recovery SIM to be postponed until at least late next week. Leon, Dan, Christine, Rob, and Roger all travelling to Space Park next week to support the ASVT Pre-Ship Readiness Review on Aug 12. ONLS 3.9.4 has been installed on the 3rd string. Testing will start Monday. TST room furniture for re-racking the SOT computer area is expected in this morning. Quick look data: OBSID Target Time Comment ----- ------ -------------- ------- 3932 M51 219:14:48 ACIS-S NONE Looks good. ------------------------------------------------------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------
