1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed Two Set of FOC/96 4804 (UV Imaging of Nearby Galaxies with 
       FOC/96)

       The Faint Object Camera was used to successfully complete two sets
       of snapshot ultraviolet observations of four nearby galaxies:
       UGC-7831, UGC-6870, UGC-7898, and UGC-7772. All of the exposures
       lasted for ten minutes and used filter F220W. The first four
       observations were executed without apparent problems. A
       communication stoppage occurred during the last two observations of
       galaxies ESO-0514-3 and UGC-9179. (See Note 2.4) The status of these
       observations is unknown at this time. 

   1.2 Uplinked Updated Ephemeris Tables , Per MOSES 2871

       This event was not executed due to the current Safemode event. (See
       Note 2.4) 

   1.3 Completed FOS/BL 4952 (QSO Absorption System Snapshot Survey - Part 2 
       of 3: Cycle 3 High)

       This observations was not executed due to the current Safemode 
       event. (See Note 2.4) 

   1.4 Completed FOS/BL 4661 (Ultraviolet Eclipsing Mapping of the Accretion 
       Flow in the Eclipsing Int.)

       This observations was not executed due to the current Safemode 
       event. (See Note 2.4) 

   1.5 Completed Two Set of WFC 5013 (WF/PC Cycle 3 Calibration: WFC Flats 
       Narrow. 2)

       This observations was not executed due to the current Safemode 
       event. (See Note 2.4) 

   1.6 Completed Two Set of WFC 4381 (HST Medium - Deep Survey - Cycle 3)

       This observations was not executed due to the current Safemode 
       event. (See Note 2.4) 

   1.7 Completed WFC PC 4109 (WF/PC Cycle 2 Calibration: Rapid Internal 
       Monitor)

       This observations was not executed due to the current Safemode 
       event. (See Note 2.4) 

2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

    2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: 

                            Scheduled Acquisitions : 5
                                        Successful : 5
                          Scheduled Reacquisitions : 0
                                        Successful : 0
                                    Losses of Lock : 0

   2.2 FHST Updates: 

                              Scheduled : 3
                             Successful : 3

   2.3 Significant HSTARs: None

   2.4 Operations Note: 

       An on-going SPC load was inadvertently overwritten with new SPC load
       at 193/1739Z (HSTAR-4218) causing the SPC load processing to idle in
       a hard wait state. All communications were subsequently lost.
       Communications were restored at approximately 193/2010Z with
       reconfiguration to LGAs. Inertial Hold Safemode was commanded at
       193/2034Z using COP 6.1. Recovery procedures are in process, with
       the start of the Health and Safety load scheduled for 194/1600Z, and
       the return to SMS processing scheduled for 195/2200Z. 

       At the time when the SPC load was overwritten, the FOC was in
       between observations on Side 2 (f/96) with its high voltage turned
       on, and the FOS was in low voltage mode on Side 2. The other three
       instruments were not active. The FOC was safed automatically when
       Inertial Hold Safemode was commanded. Safing RTCS's are being
       uplinked as part of the Health and Safety load, and science
       commanding will resume at 195/2200Z when the SMS begins. 

       DF-224 Acquisition Logic , EPS battery ROC, and battery benchmark
       SOC patches were successfully installed on day 193. Concomitant EPS
       data base changes were also implemented.
