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

A real-time procedure was executed on Feb 11 to update the on-board ephemeris. A second real-time procedure was executed on Feb 12 to set the short eclipse flag to 'true' in preparation for the lunar eclipse on Feb 13.

The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes an observation of LMC X-1 coordinated with RXTE.
