LASCO Activity Report for
September 5, 2006 SOHO Science Daily Meeting

Planner: K. Schenk, G. Stenborg

Event times are first frame seen in C2 camera unless otherwise noted.
These are preliminary observations for the daily SOHO science discussions.
Final analysis is reported on the Lasco CME list.
An archive of these reports is available.


Points Of Interest

KEYHOLE Operations: 
-------------------
2006/08/21 - 2006/09/19 : 26 m Keyhole
2006/08/28 - 2006/09/13 : 34 m Keyhole

- LASCO will safe for maneuvers (SK and MM) on 09/05 @ 18:00 UT. 
  LASCO recovery expected for late on 09/07; therefore, 
  observations should start on 09/07 @ ~ 22:00 UT.

- Spacecraft Maneuvers (Station Keeping and Momentum Management,
  not roll) on 09/06.

- 2006/08/19 - 2006/09/16 : EIT CCD Bakeout

- At least until next S/C maneuvers (scheduled for 09/06), 
  LASCO will NOT be recorded during DSN gaps (starting on 08/28, 
  until 09/16). 

- 12 minutes cadence for C2 during Keyhole (only during contact 
  periods since 08/28, which are sparse...).
