PERIOD COVERED:  0700 EST
Daily Status Report as of 024/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed FGS 4892 (Duplicity Among Hyades Stars, Cycle 3 High)

       The FGSs were used to make astrometric observations of the possible
       binary star VA119 which is located in the Hyades open cluster. The 
OSS
       monitored the observation, and no anomalies were reported.

   1.2 Completed Seven Sets of WF/PC-2 5240 (SMOV-WF/PC-2 Flat Field
       Calibration)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make a set of visual internal flat images.
       23 images were received and displayed. Seven observations were
       reported to be underexposed, and the other were okay.

   1.3 Completed COSTAR/U 4745 (COSTAR/FOS Fine Alignment - Focus)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was scheduled to be used to make
       alignment test of the COSTAR FOS M1 mirror. These observations were
       not needed, and were canceled.

   1.4 Completed S/C 4616 (WF/PC-2 Fine Alignment and focus)

       These observations were not needed, and were canceled.

   1.5 Completed Three Sets of S/C 5254 (GHRS SMOV Side One Activation)

       The Side One DEB was successfully turned on, at three hours 
intervals.
       No anomalies were noted.

   1.6 Completed Two Sets of FOS/RD 4908 (SMOV FOS/FGS Fine Alignment)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was used to find the location of its
       apertures, the plate scale, and the orientation and separation of
       its detectors. Each part was executed on both the Red and Blues
       Sides. A corrective SIP maneuver was successfully uplinked to the
       spacecraft. The subsequent observations were reported to look fine.

   1.7 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 4819 (WF/PC-2 PSF Characterization)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make multiple exposures of the globular
       Cluster Omega Centauri during coarse and fine dwell scans. The fine
       scans were only 0.025 arcseconds apart. Two different filters were
       used. Two images were received and displayed. The images were
       reported to look fine, except that they were exposures of the wrong
       target.

   1.8 Completed GHRS/2 4891 (GHRS/FGS Coarse Alignment)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make observations of
       the Small Magellanic Cloud cluster NGC-346. This is to help confirm
       the location of its aperture locations. Four observations were
       received and displayed. They were reported to look good.

   1.9 Completed WF/PC-2 4721 (WF/PC-2 Decontamination and TEC Turn On)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make ultraviolet photometric observations of
       the star standard A+81D266, plus K-Spots, and dark calibration
       images. All four sets of CCDs were used. A total of 11 images were
       received and displayed in the OSS. No anomalies were reported.

   1.10 Completed FGS 5057 (Extragalactic Astrometry and Astrophysics,
       FT0-11, Part 1 of 2)

       Fine Guidance Sensor #3 was used to make astrometric observations of
       of object 0826-373IN and 1521-REF. These observations will be used
       to determine the rotation of the reference frame used by the
       HIPPARCOS astrometry satellite. This proposal is tied to proposal
       1013. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies
       were noted.

   1.11 Completed FGS 5063 (Linking the HIPPARCOS to the Extragalactic
       Reference Frame, Part 5 of 6)

       The Fine Guidance Sensors were used to make positional observations
       of the HIPPARCOS star NEWEGOC-45 relative to that of a faint
       extragalactic object (ERO) in order to connect the galactic
       reference system to the extragalactic system. The observations were
       monitored while telemetry was available, and no problems were noted.

   1.12 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 4749 (WF/PC-2 Relative Photometric
       Calibration)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make photometric calibrations images of
       standard star A+81D266 which is located in NGC-5136 (aka, Omega
       Centauri) to obtain various medium and broad band filter images.
       The OSS monitored the observations and assessed the data quality. No
       anomalies were noted.
   1.13 Completed WF/PC-2 4709 (WF/PC-2 Internal Monitor)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue and Red Sides) was used to make
       internal dark images to help in the instrument's calibration. The
       observations were received and displayed. The images were reported
       to be normal.

   2.4 Operations Notes:

       SMOV activities continue on or ahead of the milestone schedule.
       During the past week WF/PC-2 proceeded with its decontamination
       monitoring, performed flat fields calibration, and executed QE and
       and throughput measurements. FOC, operating with COSTAR, performed
       point spread function measurements, plate scale calibrations, and
       further fine alignment observations (using a different target star
       having better characteristics for aligning the FOS). Finally, the
       GHRS, utilizing the COSTAR, successfully deployed its M2 mirror arm.

       All HST subsystems, including those with replacement components, are
       performing nominally
