Maneuvers:

The next MODIS Lunar Calibration via a spacecraft roll maneuver is scheduled for January 3rd, 2001 (2002/003) with data collection from 11:13:22 to 11:19:52. The roll angle will be -1.9741 degrees. See upcoming MODIS events above for command time details.

The IOT has been notified that the Terra Deep Space Calibration Maneuver has been postponed once again. The maneuver is not expected to be performed until late summer of 2002 at the earliest. The reasoning for this delay was to allow the EOS Operations Center (EOC) time to adjust to operating the Terra and Aqua spacecraft simultaneously.

MODIS Anomalies:

Formatter Error Events:

Error tracking spreadsheets have been updated and can be retrieved from:

ftp://www.mcst.ssai.biz/ftp/pub/permanent/IOT/am1/analysis/FR_events/

An MS Excel spreadsheet called, AM1_FR_error_rollovers_MMDDYY.xls contains the data for the times each of the error count “roll over” occurs (with the MMDDYY denoting the date the spreadsheet was made, the more recent date containing the most up-to-date information).

General Instrument Comments:

MODIS is in Science Mode on the A-side with the SVD and NAD open, operating with the Formatter Resolution Flight Software Patches (FRFSP).

MODIS Telemetry Trends:

No abnormal telemetry trends have been detected.
