While in Keyhole, improved cadence in LASCO C2 (12 min) and
LASCO C3 (30 mins).
EIT CCD Bakeout starts on 2007/05/18 @ ~15:00 UT and ends on 2007/06/05.
Spacecraft Maneuvers on Tuesday 2007/05/29.
(Station Keeping, Momentum Management, and 180 deg Roll.

on 2007/05/30 @~ 23:00 UT.

01:12 - 05:48 UT LASCO Data Gap (C2 time).
06:48 UT N West Faint ragged front that fades throughout C3.
Extremely faint expanding extensions surrounding the
front can be discerned while in C2.
09:48 UT W Limb Extremely faint ragged front that fades troughout C2.
10:36 UT E Limb Slow development of a system of very faint loop
fronts. Difficult to give an exact time of first
appearance. By 13:24 UT, a small bright feature starts
to be visible as core.
14:36 UT SS East Jet-like front.
17:00 - 23:12 UT LASCO Data Gap (C2 time).
2007/05/22 (Tuesday)
00:24 - 05:48 UT LASCO Data Gap (C2 time).
05:48 UT WN West Ragged loop front already well under development after
data gap (LE by the outer edge of the C2 FOV).
Last C2 image available by the time of writing: 09:36 UT.
