In order to ensure that the SOHO support observations are not lost due
to glitches in telemetry or other problems, the Solid State Recorder
(SSR) is used to capture the data for two time periods on 21 June:
10:00 UT - 15:00 UT for the eclipse, and 17:30 UT - 18:30 UT in
support of a rocket launch (TXI Rocket).
LASCO/EIT
A number of special requests for special combinations/timings of
EIT synoptic sets, C2 and C3 observations. Details at this page
CDS
Among other items, CDS takes a "doughnut" observation of
the solar limb, stretched over two days, with special support during
the totality period. Details here
UVCS
UVCS takes white light pB measurements and UV spectra
during totality on a stable streamer at 2.5 Rsun during totality and
at a range of heights from 1.8 to 2.6 Rsun near the time of totality.
UVCS will also be acquiring UV and pB information on a variety of
other targets throughout the day. LASCO-C2 takes extra pB sequences
for comparison to the ground-based measurements and UVCS.
MDI
Supporting before and after the eclipse and rocket flight
with the campaign that alternates 2 minutes of full disk with 8
minutes of high resolution magnetograms.
