Daily Status Report as of 056/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed FOS/RD 5614 (SMOV FOS/FGS Fine Alignment (1.0 Reference))

       The Faint Object Spectrograph was used to make spectral observations
       of the cluster NGC-188-225 to help determine the location of the 1.0
       arcsecond aperture for both the Red and Blue Sides. A total of 12
       observations were received and displayed. There was a recentering
       event and some discrepancies were reported during the observations.
       An acquisition image was severely distorted by the motion. Analysis
       of the data is pending.

   1.2 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5212 (Globular Cluster Formation in
       Cooling Flow or Interacting Galaxies)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the globular cluster
       ABEL-1795 to obtain some insight into the clusters formation
       mechanism. The baseline guide star acquisition got fine lock, and
       nine observations were received and displayed. Numerous recentering
       events were reported to have occurred during the observations.

   1.3 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5240 (SMOV-WFPC-2 Flat Fields
       Calibration)

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

   1.4 Completed WF/PC-2 5436 (Age and Population of Super Metal Rich
       Globular Clusters)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the super metal rich
       globular cluster NGC-6553 located in the central bulge of our
       galaxy. The hope is to determine the age of this cluster. The
       observations were monitored in the OSS, and the data quality was
       assessed. No anomalies were noted.

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 5204 (The Disks Around Young Stellar Objects )

       The WF/PC-2 Camera was used to make observations of the variable
       proto star HL-TAURI located in the Taurus molecular cloud to examine
       the disk known to be around this stellar object. It is hoped that
       this will determine the physical properties, albedo, particle size,
       and its spatial distribution of particles in the disk. The
       observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were
       noted.

   1.6 Completed FGS 5587 (Parallaxes of Hyades Cluster Members: Cycle 4
       High)

       The Fine Guidance Sensor #3 was used to used to make astrometric
       parallax observations of star PCEN-662 which is located in the
       Hyades open cluster. This is to help compute the distance modulus of
       the cluster. The astrometric observations were monitored in the OSS
       when telemetry was available. No anomalies were noted.


   1.7 Completed WF/PC-2 5092 (GTO Low Latitude Parallel Program: Cycle 4)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations taken in parallel with the
       prime science observations. This is part of a survey to take a large
       number of fields within 30 degrees of the galactic plan. The intent
       is to determine the luminosity function of low mass stars and the
       mass density in the solar neighborhood. The images were received as
       scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.8 Completed FGS 5583 (Long Term Stability Monitoring the FGS#3)

       The Fine Guidance Sensor #3 was used to monitor the optical field
       angle distortion by making astrometric observations of star OF55-REF
       which is located in the open cluster M-35. The astrometric
       observations were monitored, and no problems were seen in the
       telemetry.

   1.9 Completed WF/PC-2 5372 (HST Medium- Deep Survey: Cycle 4 Medium, Low
       Galactic Latitude)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make low galactic latitude observations
       taken in parallel with the prime science observations. Several
       different filters were used. The observations were completed as
       scheduled in fine lock, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.10 Completed WF/PC-2 4709 (WF/PC-2 Internal Monitor)

       The WF/PC camera was used to make a series of routine ultraviolet
       flat calibration images to monitor the instrument's performance. The
       observations were monitored in the OSS, and the data quality was
       assessed. No anomalies were noted.

   1.11 Completed FGS 5331 (Linking the HIPPARCOS to the Extragalactic
       Reference Frame, FT0-11, Part 7)

       Fine Guidance Sensor #3 was used to make astrometric observations of
       star 0912+297-IN and a nearby extragalactic object which is known
       to have a small angular separation. The observations were executed
       as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.
