SOHO WEEKLY MEETING MINUTES Week 36, September 5-11 2005 Prepared by: NASA SOC's 1. Announcements ---------------- * Monday 5 September is a holiday in the US. We do not have contact until the end of the day, so there will be nobody in the SOC office until 22 UT. If you need a SOC, contact us at home. * The timeline for maneuvers is at: http://sohowww.nascom.nasa.gov/soc/timeline 2. Operations Constraints ------------------------- * 34m keyhole begins on Tuesday and the transponder swap is on the D54 pass. * Spacecraft maneuvers and 180 degree roll on Thursday with instrument safing on Wednesday and instrument recovery on Friday and Saturday. * During the keyhole, contact time is limited and extra FOT activities are needed, so to avoid any surprises, try to coordinate all NRT with the SOCs. 3.

Safing for maneuvers on Wednesday, recovery from maneuvers on Friday. UVCS: Polar coronal hole observations and synoptic on Monday. Entering safe configuration for the keyhole on Tuesday. LASCO: C2/C3 synoptics, safing for maneuvers on Wednesday, recovery from maneuvers on Saturday. EIT: Bakeout for the keyhole. MDI: Full disk magnetograms and Dopplergrams when available during the keyhole, supporting wave study (#7152) and JOP178 (#7154). ALT cadence will change to be less than 15 ALT per day sometime this week. TRACE: Wave study (#7152) and JOP178 (#7154), full disk mosaics.
