PERIOD COVERED:  0700 EST
Daily Status Report as of 098/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5561 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration:
       Internal Monitor. 2: Flats)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make a visual flat calibration images to
monitor flat field stability as well as the stability of the 
analog-to-digital
converters. The observations were monitored by the OSS, and no anomalies
were noted.  The data has not yet been analyzed due to problems with ground
receipt.  A LOR from WSGT is expected.

   1.2 Completed WF/PC-2 5404 (Narrow-Band Imaging fo Hydrogen-Poor
       Planetary Nebulae Cycle 4 High)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make narrow band images of the small
dynamical structure  of the hydrogen-poor planetary nebula IRAS1833-2. This
nebula contains gas that consists of nearly undiluted products of the
nuclear burning that is thought to result when a final helium shell flash
occurs after the complete removal of the hydrogen envelope. Four images
were received and displayed. No anomalies were noted.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5475 (A Snapshot Survey for Blue Stragglers in
       Magellanic Cluster Cores)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make short exposure snapshot images of the
blue straggler stars located in populous cluster NGC-339. A populous
cluster is the Magellanic Cloud equivalent of a galactic globular cluster.
The observations were made with two different color filters. The intent is
to find out if blue straggler stars exist within these clusters. Both of 
the
images were received and displayed. They were reported to look nominal.

   1.4 Completed WF/PC-2 5415 (The Distance to the M-96 Galaxy Cluster:
       Cycle 4 Medium)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of Cepheid variable stars
within the galaxy NGC-3368 which itself is located in the M-96 galaxy
cluster. This is to help determine the distance to this galactic group, and
to improve the determination of the Hubble constant. The observations were
received and displayed. No anomalies were noted, although full analysis is
pending receipt of the STR dump.

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 5570 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration: Earthflats,
       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. The OSS monitored the observations and
assessed the data quality. No anomalies were noted.  Of the 8 exposures, 4
were underexposed and 1 was saturated.

   1.6 Completed GHRS/2 5358 (The Chromosphere of Alpha Tau: Cycle 4
       Medium)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to make
spectroscopic observations of the chromosphere of the star Alpha Tauri. The
baseline guidestar acquisition failed to make fine lock.  The observations
continued in coarse track.  The onboard target acquisition probably
succeeded.  No problems were noted.  All data remains on the STR.
