Points Of Interest

- Upcoming Maneuvers: The S/C roll back to 0 degrees is set for March 22.  
LASCO will be safing for the roll, and station keep maneuvers Monday 
March 21 (by the end of the day) closing doors. LASCO will open and resume 
ops late on March 23 (Wednesday).

- During the keyhole LASCO will image at an improved cadence of C2 @ 12
minutes and C3 @30 minute cadences. This includes daily orange filter pB
sequence and flat field orange/blue images. Using the keyhole recording
scheme most all LASCO data will be recovered.
