Operations CXO Status Report

Friday 11 March 2022 9.00am EST

During the last week the observing schedule was replanned to adjust the roll angle of one target to accommodate an update to the off-nominal roll pointing constraint. No scheduled observations were impacted.

A real-time activity was executed on Mar 11 to power on the HRC B-side electronics to collect diagnostic information on the electronics. Following the data collection activity the HRC was returned to a powered-off state.

The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes observations of SDSS J143016.05+230344.4, which are follow-ups to a Director's Discretionary Time Target of Opportunity accepted on Feb 7, and an observation of AT2018hyz, which was accepted as a Director's Discretionary Time Target of Opportunity on Feb 24.
