SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes for Monday, 28 February 2000 Chaired by: J. Hollis (SOC) Notes by: DOY: 059 ANNOUNCEMENTS ------------- Next week Tuesday-Thursday, there are planned ACU patch uploads and testing. For planning purposes do not expect to have NRT available during "normal working hours." Rather, plan on after 6 pm local time when the DSN contacts are lengthy enough to permit. FOT REPORT ---------- Spacecraft Status: Nominal Spacecraft Anomalies: None Accomplished Activities: 056: VIRGO, RSL New tracking star (7.25 mag), Resume nominal CEPAC operations (OCD#1349) 057: VIRGO, CELIAS 058: VIRGO< CELIAS Planned Activities: VIRGO, Acquire new tracking star (6.4 mag) Upcoming Operations: 3/1 CDMU Memory Dumps 3/7/-3/9 ACU Patch Uplink/Commissioning Ground Anomalies: 056/1955 - TM/TC Dropout; D16 antenna predicts ran out (1 min, unrecov) 057/0737 - Spurious lock on spacecraft RCVR2 059/0015 - TM Dropout; Big pipe failure between JPL/Canberra (2 min, recoverable) SOLAR STATUS ------------ SOLAR ACTIVITY FORECAST: SOLAR ACTIVITY SHOULD BE LOW TO MODERATE. M-CLASS EVENTS ARE POSSIBLE FROM REGIONS 8882 AND 8891. THERE IS A SMALL POSSIBILITY THAT EITHER OF THESE REGIONS COULD PRODUCE A MAJOR FLARE. SHOULD THE FILAMENT NEAR REGION 8889 REFORM, ANOTHER ERUPTION COULD BE POSSIBLE. Please See EIT Solar Activity Page: http://umbra.nascom.nasa.gov/eit/plan/log_form20000228.html INSTRUMENT STATUS ----------------- CDS: Nominal.
