During the last week the observing schedule was replanned to include
observations of GRB100628 and Cir X-1 that were accepted as a Target of
Opportunity on June 28 and 29 respectively. The replacement loads were
uplinked on June 30. Planned observations of PGC1206166, SDSS
J135920.99+5137, and SPT-CL 0552-5709 were impacted and will be
rescheduled at a later date.
A Chandra image release was issued on June 30 of CID-42, an unusual object discovered in the Cosmic Evolution Survey. By combining data from Chandra and other telescopes, evidence is found for a recoiling black hole in the system.
