Operations CXO Status Report
Friday 7 February 2003, 8.00am EST
During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as
planned.
Chandra passed through the fourth, fifth and sixth eclipses of the
Spring 2003 season on 31 Jan, 3 and 5 of Feb with nominal power and
thermal performance. Real-time procedures were run following each
eclipse to disable the Momentum Unload subfunction in the flight
software to ensure momentum dumps remain under manual control.
The observing schedule for next week is shown below.
