Points Of Interest

- Telemetry Keyhole # 7: 2004/12/13 - 2004/12/29 (intermittent contact).

- Spacecraft Maneuvers on 2004/12/21 (Tuesday). Therefore, LASCO will be 
  closing for the S/C maneuvers (Station keeping, Momentum management, and
  180 deg roll) between Dec. 20 (21:00 UT) - Dec 23 (~ 20:45 UT).

- EIT pre-bake cals taken on Saturday 2004/12/11 between 15:24-18:30 UT. The 
  CCD bakeout started at 18:47 UT. The end of the bakeout will be on 2004/12/28
  at 10:00 UT. Therefore, no EIT images during that period.

- During the Keyhole, LASCO is observing with DSN gap recording availability
  thanks to the FOT and the SOCs hard work. C2 and C3 observes at a 
  standard synoptic plan of C2 at 10 minute cadence and C3 at the 30 minute
  cadence with the daily pB and flat field images.
