Operations CXO Status Report 27 September 2002
During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as
planned.
Of note last week was the approval by the Flight Director Board of the
promotion to operations of a new Guide Star catalog. The catalog
provides improved color and position information, and will result in
an increased availability of acquisition and guide stars during the
scheduling of observations.
The observing schedule for next week is shown below and includes an
observation of Capella coordinated with XMM-Newton and a series of
observations of 47 Tucanae coordinated with the Hubble Space
Telescope.
