PERIOD COVERED:  0800 EST 02/03/93 - 0800 EST 02/04/93

Daily Status Report as of 035/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed PC 4714 (WF/PC Calibration: PC Internal Delta Flats)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make four internal flat
       observations looking for changes in quantum efficiency which may 
       have occurred during decontamination operations. All six images were
       reported to look okay. 

   1.2 Completed FOS/BL 3484 (Nuclear Regions of Seyfert Galaxy NGC-5548)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make
       spectroscopic observations of Seyfert galaxy NGC-5548. The guide
       star acquisition was made in course track. The binary search target
       acquisition failed to located the target, and a status buffer error
       message was generated indicating the field was crowded. The science
       data was received. The problem was caused by the point spread
       function peaks being brighter than the faint limit. The following
       science observations had a reasonable number of counts, although
       they were a bit noisy. 

   1.3 Completed WFC/PC 4109 (Rapid Internal Monitor)

       Two internal flat observations were made with both the Planetary
       Camera and the Wide Field Camera looking for new forms of
       contamination (i.e., daises and measles). Both observations were
       reported to look okay. 

   1.4 Completed PC 4778 (Mass Ejection From Planetary Nebulae)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was used to make spectral observations
       of the central star in the protoplanetary nebula EGB-6 (aka,
       0950+139). The guide star acquisition was made in fine lock. The
       observations were received and displayed. It was reported that
       stellar objects were visible in the images. 

   1.5 Completed One Set of WFC/PC 3172 (Observations: Internal Monitor 
       Proposal) and Initiated a Second

       Both the Wide Field Camera and the Planetary camera were used to
       take a total of five observations. These included both internal dark
       and bias images. They all were reported to look okay. 

   1.6 Completed FOC/96 3801 (QSOs Suitable for Subsequent Observations)

       The Faint Object  Camera was used to take two images of quasars
       1317-0507 and 1110+01 to measure the level of their ultraviolet flux
       to see if they can be used to make subsequent observations using the
       HRS and FOS. Both images were received and displayed in the OSS.
       Both images were reported to be blank. This was one of the possible
       results, and does not necessarily mean a problem. 

   1.7 Completed FOS/BL 4112 (Evolution of Lyman-Alpha and Carbon IV 
       Absorption System)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was used to take one set of rapid mode
       observations of quasar HS0624+690 to study its absorption line
       systems from Lyman alpha emission. The observation was received and
       displayed. The spectrum was reported to look normal. 

   1.8 Completed WFC 1306 (GTO Low Latitude Parallel Program)

       The Wide field Camera was used to take four low latitude
       observations taken in parallel with the prime science observations.
       All the observations were received and displayed. There were several
       bright stars, a faint fuzzy object, and a pair of very faint
       galaxies in these images. Two more images were monitored, but have
       not yet been evaluated. 

   1.9 Completed FOS/BL 3824 (Search for Silicon and Carbon in GP Com)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was used to make far ultraviolet
       spectral observations looking for emission line of silicon, carbon,
       and nitrogen in cataclysmic variable star GP Com (aka, G61-29). The
       observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were
       reported.
