MODIS Anomalies:
At 2000/051 08:21:25 MOD_VR_PVSM_P5VD6_12 exceeded its yellow low limit with a value of 4.61 for one 65 second cycle.
General Instrument Comments:
MODIS is in Science Mode on the A-side with the SVD and NAD open. Functional checkout of MODIS is complete and was successful. All mechanisms behaved nominally.
First light occurred at 2000/055 15:27:09
MODIS Telemetry Trends:
Telemetry is nominal.
Non-MODIS Significant Events:
MISR opened their covers on 2000/055 and all went nominally.
CERES successfully opened both of their covers on 2000/056.
MOPITT is schedule to open their covers on Monday, 2000/059.
The following is the as-run burn schedule which placed Terra into her final orbit (the times are in GMT). Our current orbit is 708km x 692km. FDS did such a great job that another orbit attainment burn will not be required for about 2 months (around the time of the inclination maneuver). Therefore, we’ll be skipping the March monthly orbit attainment burn. Kudos to FDS.

Getting data through the system and products delivered to MCST continues to be a major problem and is the critical path for characterization of MODIS.
EDOS has installed their bit flip patch Friday evening (2000/057) and initial indications are that this has greatly increased EDOS ability to process MODIS data. Thanks EDOS!
Limited Life Item Status:
All limited life items are well within lifetime ranges. The precise statistics for each item have been received from LMMS/Valley Forge and will be incorporated next week.
