SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes for Wednesday, 13 February 2002 ANNOUNCEMENTS ------------- * For the remainder of the week, call Stein or Emily in case you need to get hold of a SOC. * Solar science seminar Wed Feb 13, 2002, 3:30 PM, in SOHO EAF (room G-10) Peter Gallagher (Emergent) on "The Science of Flare Forecasting" * ICAL planned for 15 UT Friday. * On February 13 from 5:00 pm to 11:00 pm Maintenance will be conducting the Annual PM of the Fire Alarm System in Building 3. Bells will ring at various times during this testing. If there are short burst of rings, ignore the bell. If the bells ring continuously, evacuate the building. No impact to operations is expected. * NRT plans for the immediate future: Today and tomorrow, most teams will command on D66 in the morning, CDS and MDI will command on D27 in the afternoon. Friday we have D66 and D16 during the day. The Intercal goes at 15:00, and LASCO loads a new plan afterwards, before the handover. During the handover, MDI may ftp over a background load. CDS starts an FF_CAL study after the handover, together with MDI's background load uplinking (or MDI NRT). CDS will also load science plans for the weekend. Station 27 comes up starting around 22:00. Note that as soon as we get final plans for the remainder of the CELIAS/CTOF recovery, we will try to schedule that NRT pause at a convenient time during daytime. * The JOP151 leader would like to thank all the participants for the support.
