PERIOD COVERED:  0800 EST
Daily Status Report as of 050/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed Three Sets of PC 3603 (Snapshots of Protoplanetary Nebulae)

       The Planetary Camera was used to take a total of five images of the
       protoplanetary system PK249+01D1. The first image was reported to be
       blank, and the others were reported to be okay. 

   1.2 Completed GHRS/2 3862 (Excitation of Atmospheres of Planetary  
       Satellites)

       Both the High Resolution Spectrograph and the Faint Object
       Spectrographs were used to make eight spectral observations of the
       moon Io while it enters and exits the shadow of Jupiter. All of the
       observations were received, and where possible displayed. The target
       acquisition were successful. The Rapid Mode spectra were normal.
       They were displayed for the principal investigator. 

   1.3 Completed PC 4140 (WF/PC Cal: Rapid Internal Monitor- Part 2) 

       The Planetary Camera was used to obtain two internal flat
       observations which will be used to check for new forms of
       contamination, and the return of quantum efficiency hysteresis. Both
       images were received and displayed. Both internal flats were
       reported to look normal. 

   1.4 Completed GHRS/2 4065 (Dark Noise Monitoring HRS) 

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make one internal dark
       observations to monitor the detector for dark noise. The observation
       was received and displayed. The dark exposure was reported to look
       normal. 

   1.5 Uplinked Updated Ephemeris Tables, Per MOSES 2871

   1.6 Completed GHRS/2 4792 (Hydrogen Lyman Alpha Emission Line Profiles)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make four observations
       of the line profiles of the Lyman Alpha dayglow on the central
       meridian of Jupiter at the equator and mid-latitudes. All four
       observations were received and displayed in real time. The first and
       thirds observations were wave length calibration images, and the
       others were spectra of the target. They all were reported to look
       okay. 

   1.7 Initiated GHRS/2 3372 (GHRS Point Spread Function Determination)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make point spread
       function observations of standard star HD141556. Four observations
       were received and displayed. The first and third observations were
       deflection calibrations and the other two were a spiral search and
       the peakup. The target was found in the ninth map. After the peakup
       the target flux was 45044.
