Announcements ------------- Jean Desselle has put together a binder with SOHO news clips from magazines and newspapers. Please give her a copy of any articles (US or foreign) you may find. There is a copy in the EOF and the EAF that she is maintaining. FOT Briefing ------------- Spacecraft Status: Nominal Spacecraft Anomalies: 261/2314 CDS Watchdog Trip 261/2344 UVCS unplanned entry to SAFE Mode Accomplished Activities: RSL, VIRGO, CELIAS, MDI, Nom HGA Table Planned Activities: RSL, VIRGO, SWAN Upcoming Operations: 10/1 -TR Maint/Memory Dumps Ground Anomalies: 261/1347 Commanding equip anomaly at D66 (40 min commanding lost) 261/1553 Resweeps for D16 ranging pass (17 min delay; no ranging) 261/2143 Degraded TM at D27 due to RFI (87 min, unrecoverable) 262/0010 TM/TC Dropout due to JPL equip problem (3 min, recov) SOLAR STATUS ------------ A new active region is comming around on the east limb. The entire limb is in fact unusual active. An extended coronal hole (north) is expected soon. CDS -- Had a watch-dog error during synoptic, recoverd from that. Supporting the active region campaing, JOP50, and Minor ions in Corobnal holes over the weekend. SUMER -- Nominal, Observed the active region including a Sunspot/AR reference spectrum. also did a coronal hole reference spectrum. Supports the Minor Ions (CH) UVCS -- Nominal, running minor ions (CH) and will do observations out in the corona over the weekend (1.7 solar radii). LASCO -- Nominal, supports Minor Ions (CH) with C1. Reports lots of activity on the west limb with distinct CME's. EIT -- Nominal, supports 3 campaigns (Active region, JOP050, and Minor Ions (CH). MDI -- Nominal, obtains disk center high res. magnetograms for JOP050 and will continue doing so for the next 5-6 days.
