Maneuvers:

Friday, July 21, 2000 - MODIS Roll Maneuver (2000/203/12:07:22 – 12:25:24)

MODIS Anomalies:

The Radiative Cooler has negative margin, therefore the cold focal planes are no longer under thermal control. This affects bands 5, 6, 7, and 20-36. Analysis is underway. Solar Diffuser Door operations are suspended during this analysis.

Current maximum and minimum temperature ranges of the LWIR FPA:
Thursday, July 6, 2000:
2000/188 22:21:40 = 83.775K
2000/188 23:22:10 = 83.597K

General Instrument Comments:

MODIS is in Science Mode on the A-side with the SVD and NAD open.

MODIS Telemetry Trends:

See MODIS Anomalies section.

Non-MODIS Significant Events:

Data processing by EDOS is currently running at a "degraded level". For a detailed summary of the events that have affected their products, view the EOS System Status web page (http://jupiter02.gsfc.nasa.gov:591/sysstat/) and select the EDOS summary link at the top of the page. A key item to note is from day 6/27/2000 at 12:11:19 PM: " The second major issue is the amount of data that EDOS is receiving since ASTER has been fully turned on." With the new, higher data output of ASTER, even less "spare" time will be available to EDOS for the processing of backlogged or reprocessing of data.
