1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WFC 4929 (WF/PC Cycle 2: Improved Dark Calibration)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make two dark calibration images.
       The two exposures lasted 1200 seconds each, and the camera was
       pre-flashed before the observations. Both observations were reported
       to be normal exposures. 

   1.2 Completed PC 4746 (Investigation of the Dynamics of Binary Asteroids)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make four images of the asteroid
       KLOPA-216 which is suspected to be a binary asteroid based on its
       unusual light curve. All four observations were received and
       displayed. They were reported to look okay. 

   1.3 Uplinked Updated Ephemeris Tables, Per 2871

   1.4 Completed PC 4714 (WF/PC Cycle 2 Calibration: Internal Delta Flats)

       The Faint Object Camera was used to make four internal flat
       calibration images which will be used for the restoration of Earth
       flat images, which were altered due to changes in quantum efficiency
       which occurred after decontamination operations. The observations
       were received and displayed in the OSS. They were reported to look
       okay. 


   1.5 Completed Two Sets of WFC/PC 4109 (WF/PC Cycle 2 Calibration: Rapid
       Internal Monitor) 

       Rapid Internal Monitoring observations were made with both the Wide
       Field Camera and the Planetary Camera using filter F555W to look for
       new forms of contamination (i.e. daises and measles), and the
       possible return of quantum efficiency hysteresis. A total of three
       image observations were monitored in the OSS, and the data quality
       was assessed. No problems were reported. 

   1.6 Completed GHRS/2 3759 (Dust, Molecular, Atomic Composition and the 
       Physical Condition in Mol.)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make three spectral
       observations of standard star HD102965 which lies behind a
       molecular cloud. The absorption lines in the spectra of this star
       will provide information on the gas and dust in the foreground
       cloud. All three observations were received and displayed in the
       OSS. No anomalies were noted. 

   1.7 Completed GHRS/2 4580 (High Resolution Observations of the Jovian UV
       Aurora - Cycle 3 Med.) 

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make two kinetic
       temperature measurements of the Jovian auroral regions, to better
       understand Jupiter's upper atmosphere. The observations were of the
       ultraviolet Lyman and Werner bands in the 1586 to 1620 A0 region. An
       onboard acquisition was performed on the Moon Io , and then the
       telescope was offset to Jupiter's auroral region. The observations
       were executed as scheduled, and no problems were reported. Both
       spectral observations were reported to look okay. 

   1.8 Completed GHRS/2 3614 (Boron as a Probe of Stellar Structure and 
       Mass Loss)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make 12 spectral
       observations of the Boron lines in stars HD128620 and HD128621. The
       abundance of Boron can be used to study the process on the interior
       of these stars. All spectral observations were reported to look
       okay. 

   1.9 Completed PC 3230 (PC PSF and Focus Monitoring 2) 

       The Planetary Camera was used to make one set of images which will
       be used to monitor the point spread function and focus changes which
       have occurred due to changes in desorption and other changes in the
       WFPC system. The observations were executed with no apparent
       problems. The star appeared near the fiducial point of each chip. 

   1.10 Completed GHRS/2 4650 (A Study of Fast Winds in Central Star of 
       Planetary Nebulae: Cycle 3 Med.)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make observations of
       the central stars of planetary nebulae ABELL78 and K1-16 (Both
       located in Centaurus) to learn more about the velocities in the
       winds produced by this stars and the rate of their mass loss. Five
       observations were received and displayed. The wavelength and
       spectral observations were reported to look okay. 

   1.11 Completed WFC 4713 (WF/PC Cycle 2 Calibration: WFC Internal Delta 
       Flats)

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make a total of five internal flat
       calibrations images. All five images were reported to be normal. 

   1.12 Completed Two Sets of PC 3603 (Snapshot of Protoplanetary Nebulae)

       The Planetary Camera was used to make a snapshot image of the
       protoplanetary system V354-LAC to study its current morphology. The 
       OSS monitored the observations and assessed the data quality. No
       problems were reported. 

   1.13 Completed WFC 3931 (Imaging of Distant Active Galaxies Cycle 2)

        The Wide Field Camera was used to make two images of the low
        redshift quasar 1302-102 which had been partially resolved from
        ground observations. Both observations were executed in fine lock
        using FGS #1 only. No recentering was reported to have occurred.
        The observations were received and displayed, and no anomalies were
        reported. 

   1.14 Completed WFC 3857 (Morphology of Galaxies in Clusters at Z = 0.5 - 
       Continuation of 2373) 

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make two images to study
       the morphology of galactic cluster NGC-188 using filter F702W. The
       observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were
       reported. Both images were reported to look okay.

   1.15 Completed Two Sets of FOC/96 4804 (UV Imaging of Nearby Galaxies -
        FOC/96) 

       The Faint Object Camera was used to complete one snapshot
       ultraviolet observation of the nearby galaxy ESO-0411-5. The
       exposures lasted for ten minutes and used filter F220W, and were
       executed in fine lock. No anomalies were noted. 

   1.16 Completed FOC/96 3801 (Search for QSOs suitable for Subsequent 
       Observation of He II)

       The Faint Object Camera was used to make observations of quasar
       2318+0119 to measure the levels of its ultraviolet flux, to see if
       the flux levels are high enough for subsequent observations using
       the GHRS and FOS. The observations were executed in fine lock during
       LOS. The observations were later received and displayed in the OSS.
       No anomalies were noted. 

   1.17 Completed PC 4140 (WF/PC Cycle 2 Calibration: Rapid Internal Monitor
       - Part 2) 

       The WFPC was used to make four internal flat calibration images to
       check for new forms of contamination (i.e., Daises and measles), and
       to check for the possible return of quantum efficiency hysteresis.
       The observations completed as scheduled, and no problems were
       reported. 

   1.18 Completed GHRS/2 4476 (Deuterium Observations of Jupiter) 

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make six medium and
       high resolution observations profiles of the D-Lyman line emitted at
       the limb of the Jovian atmosphere. All six observations were
       reported to look okay. The target flux levels were reported to be
       1171. 


   1.19 Complete 4113 (Auroral Observations of Jupiter)

       The Faint Object Camera was used to make two images of the auroral
       emissions on the planet Jupiter at 1600 A0. Both north and south
       observations were contained within the sequence. The observations
       were received, and reported to look okay. 

   1.20 Completed WFC 5013 (WF/PC Cycle 3 Calibration: WFC Flats Narrow. 2) 

       The Wide Field Camera was used to make Earth flat calibration images
       to be used for flat fielding of WFC observations. The observations
       used the narrow band filters, both with and without neutral density
       filters. A total of four observations were received. One observation
       was reported to be saturated, and the others were okay. 


2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

    2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: 

                            Scheduled Acquisitions : 25
                                        Successful : 25
                          Scheduled Reacquisitions : 29
                                        Successful : 29
                                    Losses of Lock : 0

   2.2 FHST Updates: 

                              Scheduled : 44
                             Successful : 43

                            184/2205Z the FHST 2 and 3 failed to perform a 
                            full maneuver update (secondary). This did not
                            cause a Guide Star Acquisition Failure. 

   2.3 Significant HSTARs: None

   2.4 Operations Note: 

       The MSS select flag (QDSMSSU) toggled from a value of 2 to a value
       of 1 on Day 186/0129Z for approximately three minutes. The out of
       limit period occurred while the vehicle was executing a type two
       slew. HSTAR #4203 was written because the out of limit did not occur
       during a SAA event (weak magnetic field). PCS is currently analyzing
       sensor temperature, magnetic field strength data, and the MSS
       resonableness test logic.
