Maneuvers:
---
Terra Lunar Roll took place on 2021/239.

MODIS Anomalies:
---
MODIS configuration monitor error check tripped with alarm “W_APG_OBSOLETE_ENG_DATA_SENT” at 2021/239 02:13:14, following the Terra lunar roll. This alarm has occurred in the past following lunar roll calibrations. There is no impact to science data and no action needed.

General Instrument Comments:

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

Note that the BlackBody will be maintained at 285K.

Note that a new STS File scheduling procedure was implemented on 2021/122. The STS Files create alternating orbits allowing for coverage of the poles and lengthen Night Rate collection by varying amounts each orbit. As a result of the Terra MODIS PWA failure on 2021/180, the STS procedure was changed on 2021/183 to previous method with consistent 4-orbits using larger delta times to account for buffer space. On 2021/184 at 20:00:00 this change was reverted back to the dynamic procedure using varying daylight times.

MODIS Telemetry Trends:

Nominal telemetry trending is ongoing.
