INSTRUMENT STATUS
-----------------
CDS: Nominal. Today - Flare watch on AR 9506, then JOP142 and first
half of a limb scan for eclipse support. Tomorrow - second half of
limb scan, eclipse and TXI rocket support. For the rocket flight
support CDS and TRACE will point at the same active region.
UVCS: Nominal. Today - mini synoptic, short CME watch and pre-eclipse
observations. Tomorrow - eclipse and post-eclipse observations.
LASCO: Nominal. C2/C3 synoptics and JOP139 observations. LASCO will also
do two full-color sequences today, tomorrow and Friday for eclipse
observations support.
EIT: Nominal. 195 CME watch and JOP142 support for one hour. EIT will
do extra synoptic sets today and tomorrow in support of the eclipse
and TXI rocket observations.
MDI: Nominal. High res observations continue. Supporting JOP142.
Tomorrow MDI will either do full disk observations or a combination
of full disk and high res observations in support of the eclipse
and rocket flight.
TRACE: Nominal. Today - Flare watch on AR 9506 with CDS and
JOP142 support. Tomorrow - will coordinate with CDS
on an active region for the rocket observations. TRACE
also plans to support the eclipse observations.
