During the last week the observing schedule was replanned to include
an observation of 1ES 1028+511 that was accepted as a 1 day
turn-around Target Of Opportunity (TOO) on 10 Mar. Loads were
replanned and uplinked on Mar 11. Observations of NGC 3384, LBQS
1203+1530, M101, G21.5-09, SDSS J132323.78-00 were impacted by the TOO
and will be rescheduled for a later load.
A Chandra press release was made on Mar 8 describing observations of X-rays from Saturn. The results show the emission concentrated near the equator (unlike Jupiter with its polar emission) and a solar-like spectrum indicating an atmospheric reflection mechanism. For details see: http://chandra.harvard.edu/photo/2004/saturn/ The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below. |
