Maneuvers:

The next MODIS Lunar Calibration via a spacecraft roll maneuver is scheduled for February 1st, 2002 (DOY 2002/032) with data collection from 20:19:21 to 20:25:51. The roll angle will be -3.4357 degrees.

The DMU planned to follow the IAM by one week was advanced to Wednesday, January 16, 2002, at 15:39:00 for 14 seconds. DMU Maneuvers are much shorter and less complex than IAMs, as no attitude changes or significant instrument re-configurations are required. Therefore, the maneuver was deemed safe and not susceptible to major impact by the sporadic network events. As a safety precaution, Terra Flight Operations Team (FOT) personnel were stationed in the backup EOC to take over operational responsibility in the event of any problems. There were no network issues during the maneuver.

The IOT has been notified that the Terra Deep Space Calibration Maneuver has been postponed once again. The maneuver date is not expected 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 Terra and Aqua spacecraft simultaneously.

MODIS Anomalies:

Formatter Error Events:

The Formatter Error Count is now approaching 10.6 Million Events.

The Formatter Error Rate has been increasing over the past few weeks with the counter rollover time approximately every six hours and thirty-fifty minutes (not counting calibrations).

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

ftp://ftp.mcst.ssai.biz/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 are being observed.
