KEYHOLE Operations: ------------------- * Feb 22 - Mar 21: 26 m Keyhole. * Feb 28 - Mar 16: 34 m Keyhole. - S/C Maneuvers scheduled for 2006/03/07 ==> LASCO safing for maneuvers on 2006/03/06 @ 19:30 UT. LASCO recovery is scheduled for 2006/03/10 (due to DSN & Mars explorer) @ 02:00 UT. - LASCO will be running a version of the "Brueckner plumes study" of Mar 21 1997 prior to the S/C maneuver. While SOHO is inverted (and starting on 2006/02/28 @ 03:45 UT) LASCO will be taking 32x13 LOCS block FOV over the South pole including the coronal hole. This allows an open FOV with occulting pylon in the north. The sequence will be C2 orange/clear filters, 100 sec exp, 5 min cadence. There will remain FFFres C2 and C3 at 1 hr cadence for the web and daily orange/blue fielding images and orange filter pB sets. - EIT CCD Bakeout bewtween 2006/02/28 03:00 UT - 2006/03/18. - TRACE performing detector annealing: 2006/02/27 - 2006/03/03. Therefore, there will be no full disk mosaics during this period to compensate for the lack of EIT images during the bakeout period.
14:05 UT WS West Bright and elongated loop front. 14:05 UT S Pole Faint and very narrow loop front that fades very close to the inner edge of C3. 18:05 UT S East Diffuse and very elongated fan-like front (slightly curved). 20:05 UT ES East Another diffuse and very elongated curved feature.
03:05 - 09:05 UT Temporary DSN Data Gap. Last C2 image available by the time of writing: 12:05 UT.
