PERIOD COVERED:  0700 EST
Daily Status Report as of 075/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed Three Sets of WF/PC-2 5090 (Large Area/Multicolor Survey:
       Cycle 4)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make deep exposure images of fields #1415,
       #1416, and #1418 as part of a large area, high galactic latitude,
       multicolor sky survey to learn more about the distribution of
       galaxies, their morphology, distribution in magnitude and redshift,
       and evolution of galactic luminosity, function, and colors. A total
       19 images were received and displayed. Some recentering events were
       reported to have occurred, but they did not appear to degrade the
       data.

   1.2 Completed GHRS/2 5549 (GHRS/2 Side 2 Dark Noise Monitor: Cycle 4)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side One) was used to make
       internal tests for routine monitoring of detector dark noise. There
       was no carousel motion. A total of sixteen observations were
       received and displayed. They all were reported to be nominal.

   1.3 Completed GHRS/2 5546 (GHRS Side 2 Threshold Adjustment Test:
       Cycle 4)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to conduct an engineering
       test to make internal threshold level measurements for the noisy
       channels. The observations were monitored in the OSS, and the data
       quality was assessed. No anomalies were noted.

   1.4 Completed Two Sets of 5570 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration: Earth 
Flats,
       Large Set)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make a set of Earth flat calibration images
       using different filters in order to construct high quality flat
       fields of the OTA illumination pattern. A total of four images were
       received and displayed. One image was underexposed. Additional data
       is scheduled to be downlinked from the science tape recorder later.

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 5476 (Continuum Snapshots of 3RC Radio Galaxies)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make snapshot images of radio galaxy 3C277.3
       as part of a continuum survey and to study the galaxy's morphology.
       Three images were received and displayed. The observations were
       reported to look okay. Additional data still remains on the science
       tape recorder.

   2.3 Significant HSTARs: None

   2.4 Operations Notes:

       Another nominal day was experienced as all SMOV activities reported
       no operational problems, and all HST subsystems performed
       flawlessly.
