SOHO telemetry keyhole #29 begins. What is a Keyhole? Click here for more descriptive information. SOHO will be in the keyhole period April 21 - May 3, 2010. During this time, data that is recorded on-board SOHO during the gaps in contact is delayed until it is dumped and transmitted on a high-rate station. This will be noted below as "temp data gap" periods. The delay can sometimes be a week long. So please bear with us. For a DSN pass schedule Click here.
