During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as planned. Chandra passed through the second, third and fourth eclipses of the 2009 winter season on Nov 29, Dec 1 and 4 respectively, with nominal power and thermal performance. A real-time procedure was executed on Dec 2 to perform a routine self-check of the Electrical Interface Assembly (EIA) Sequencer. The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes observations of Mrk 509 coordinated with HST. |
