SOT shift report 2006-09-05 L2602 File created at 2006:248:12:05 UTC = 08:05 AM Sep-05-2006 EDT End 11:00:00 AM EDT SOT Lead: Ed Kellogg Seven years ago last week, scientists from MIT took a peek at Capella while they checked out Chandra's High Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer for the first time. PLAN ---- OBSID 06814, SDSS J0750+4252 2006:248:14:23, ACIS-S NONE - Snapshot Observations of the Most Luminous Quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. RADIATION SUMMARY ----------------- Solar soft proton flux is very low (http://www.srl.caltech.edu/ACE/ASC/) Significant solar activity: At midnight UTC the visible solar disk was spotless. The solar flare activity level was very low. No C class events were recorded yesterday (http://www.dxlc.com/solar/). GOES x-ray flux: There was a long duration B class event at 16:00 UTC yesterday. All quiet today. CMEs reported for past two days: September 2-4: No obvious partly or fully Earth directed CMEs were detected in very incomplete LASCO imagery.

The SEP1106A load will be out for review late today or early tomorrow. S/C: All quiet. GOT/IST: Nominal. DATA: We reviewed the GRB TOO data that were taken in cc mode and satisfied ourselves that we had successfully acquired the target and gotten the data.
