Operations CXO Status Report
Friday 3/9/01 10.00am EST
During the last week, Chandra completed the observing schedule as
planned.
Chandra continued through the 2001 Spring eclipse season with nominal
power and thermal performance. A real-time procedure was completed on
March 8 to uplink the software patch in preparation for the 11th and
final (short) eclipse of the season that will occur this afternoon.
Of note next week is the 15 March deadline for the submission of
proposals for Chandra's third observing cycle. The Peer Review
selection is scheduled for June and observations from this cycle are
expected to begin in November 2001.
The planned observations for the coming week are shown below and
include an observation of HD 111812 coordinated with the Hubble Space
Telescope. The coordinated portion of the observation will occur on
Mar 13 between 8:23am and 2:04pm EST.
