Operations CXO Status Report

During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as planned.

Real-time procedures were executed on Apr 1 to perform a routine self-check of the Electrical Interface Assembly (EIA) Sequencer and to perform a diagnostic dump of the Control Processing Electronics (CPE).

Of note this week were the Chandra Quarterly Review conducted on Apr 1 by teleconference and the Chandra Cycle 22 proposal deadline on Apr 2 at 6pm EDT.

The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes an observation of PKS0620-52, which was accepted as Target of Opportunity on Feb 5.
