Shift L2380. Start at 026:13:00 GMT = 08:00am 26 Jan EST End 10:00am 26 Jan SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 026.) PLAN ---- Continue running load JAN2306B. Finish obsid 6862, an ACIS-S observation of the ultra-luminous infrared galaxy (ULIRG) IRAS08572+3915, to search for binary black holes, obscured AGN, or starbursts. Then do obsid 6601, the second part of the ToO observation of Cyg X-3 to study the wind of the massive Wolf-Rayet companion star with ACIS-S/HETG. Then into perigee passage. Next Comms: 026:2245 to 2345 027:0230 to 0330 027:1500 to 1600 027:2235 to 2335 028:0330 to 0430 028:1200 to 1300 028:2105 to 2205 029:0345 to 0445 Orbital events: 026:07:06:02.912 894 EAPOGEE ORBIT APOGEE 027:14:49:21.200 894 EPERIGEE ORBIT PERIGEE 028:22:33:45.978 895 EAPOGEE ORBIT APOGEE 030:06:16:38.371 895 EPERIGEE ORBIT PERIGEE 031:14:01:43.075 896 EAPOGEE ORBIT APOGEE EVENTS ------ Status at LOS, 026:12:58, was as follows: PCAD MODE = NPNT CONTROL LAW FLAG = NPNT Stars: = 5 FIDS = 3 RA = 135.141 deg Dec = 39.071 deg ROLL = 162.674 deg Format = 2 OBSID = 6862 IRAS 08572+3915 SIM FA = -467 SIM TSC = 75623 (ACIS-S) DITHER = ENAB HETG = OUT (79.09 deg) LETG = OUT (77.59 deg) HRC-I HV is ON EPHIN Geom = LARG E150 = 7.6 E300 = 0.9 E1300 = 0.6 LT 20.0 (RADMON P4GM = 0.0 LT 300.

EPH temp 94.86 degF EPH 27V 16.71 NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS IRU-2, gyro #1 current has increased about 2 counts, about 5ma, starting around January 18th. Is being watched by FOT. Increase is gradual in nature -- jump increases would be a concern. From the 9am status meeting: Three supports over the past day. No issues. One SCS uplinked, on-board loads are good until 030:18:54. JAN3006A products were reviewed yesterday. JAN3006B products have been re-issued to correct the ACIS mode for the focal plane cooling test. Review by email today. An extremely small increase over background in the ACE solar protons. No significant solar activity is expected over the next several days.
