This past week, Genesis detected and low speed solar wind, high-speed
solar wind/coronal hole, and a borderline coronal mass ejection.

A total of 13.13 kg of fuel has been used since the start of the
mission, and 1.84 kg since the start of science.

Telecom continues to report good performance. The spacecraft, using
the 26-meter Deep Space Network dish in Canberra, Australia, identified
a ground station setting change that boosted performance.
