Maneuvers:

The next Terra MODIS Lunar Calibration Roll will be on DOY 2006/343 (December 9, 2006). The roll angle will be -6.3814 degrees. Data collect will be from 09:30:59-09:37:29.

Terra performed a Drag Make-Up (DMU) maneuver on Wednesday, December 06, 2006 (DOY 2006/340). The time of the thruster firing was at 18:31:00 GMT for 8.984 seconds. The spacecraft was in low fidelity pointing mode from 17:26:00-19:53:37 GMT.

MODIS Anomalies:

None

General Instrument Comments:

MODIS is in Science Mode, using all A-side components, but cross-strapped to Formatter B, with the blackbody maintained at 290K and the Solar Diffuser Door at the Screened position.

MODIS Telemetry Trends:

Nominal telemetry trending is ongoing.
