Maneuvers:

There will be an Aqua Drag Make-Up Maneuver (DMUM) #38 on DOY 322 (11/18/09). The spacecraft slew out start time is set for 322/15:53:00 and slew back end time is set for 322/16:58:00. The maximum yaw angle for this maneuver will reach 14.35 degrees. The preliminary burn duration for the maneuver is currently 16.5 seconds.

MODIS Anomalies:

None

General Instrument Comments:

FM1 MODIS is in Science Mode. The SVD and NAD are open, the survival heaters are enabled, and the Black Body is heated to 285 K.

MODIS Telemetry Trends:

The FM1 MODIS instrument telemetry is trending nominally.
