PERIOD COVERED:  0700 EST
Daily Status Report as of 179/1200Z.

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 5397 (Determination fo the Extragalactic Distance
       Scale: Cycle 4 High)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make images of galaxy NGC-7331 to be used in
       measuring the periods of Cepheid variable stars within this galaxy.
       The images were received and displayed. They were reported to look
       okay. The first three images encountered some recenterings.

   1.2 Completed FOS/BL 5364 (The UV spectral Components in RE1938-461, The
       Brightest ROSAT WFC disc)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make rapid
       mode ultraviolet observations of the polar-type cataclysmic variable
       star RE1938-461. Ten observations were received and displayed. They
       all were reported to look good, although it will be necessary to
       look at the tape recorded engineering data to be sure that the
       target acquisitions were completely successful. One more observation
       still remains on Science Tape Recorder #1, and will be analyzed
       later.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5369 (HST Medium Deep Survey: Cycle 4 Medium, High
       Galactic Latitude.)

       The WF/PC-2 made a series of observations of high latitude objects
       as part of a medium deep sky survey. The observations were taken in
       parallel with other prime science observations. The observations
       were executed as scheduled, and the data still remains on Science
       Tape Recorder #1. It will be analyzed later.

   1.4 Completed WF/PC-2 5560 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration: Internal
       Monitor. 1)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make several internal bias, K-Spot, and flat
       calibration observations to monitor the CCD camera electronics, the
       optical alignment, and to check for contamination. A total of eight
       images was taken. They were reported to be nominal.

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 5479 (Subarcsecond Structure in Nearby AGNs)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make snapshot observations of the nearby
       active galactic nuclei of HEAO2106-0 and MARK896. The first
       observation remains on Science Tape Recorder #1, and will be
       analyzed later. The second observation was executed as scheduled,
       and no anomalies were noted.

   1.6 Completed WF/PC-2 5221 (The Vertical Structure of the Atmosphere of
       Neptune)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the Planet Neptune to
       study the structure and composition of the clouds and haze in the
       upper regions of its atmosphere. The observations were executed as
       scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.7 Complete WF/PC-2 5427 (Calibration of Nearby Galaxy Type IA
       Supernovae as Standard Candles)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of nearby galaxy
       NGC-4536-FI as part of an effort to find Cepheids in this galaxy
       which has produced a Type I supernovae. The observations were
       executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.
