1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 5629 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Photometric Calibration
       Monitor 1C: 4-HIP STD in F170W)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make photometric calibration observations of
       the ultraviolet standard star GRW+70D582. The observations were
       executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.2 Completed WF/PC-2 5419 (A Search for Very Low-Luminosity Active
       Galactic Nuclei in Nearby Galaxies)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of galaxy NGC-4036, which
       is known to have a ultraviolet bright, low-luminosity, active
       galactic nuclei. The observations were completed as planned, and no
       problems were noted.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5659 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration: CTE Dither
       Test: Part 2)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make CTE (Charges Transfer Efficiency)
       Dither Calibration images by making observations of the large
       globular cluster Omega-Cen. The observations were executed as
       scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.4 Completed FOS/BL 5658 (White Dwarf Calibration)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (f/96) was used to make absolute
       sensitivity calibrations of the detectors using standard white dwarf
       star HZ43. The observations were executed as planned, and no
       anomalies were noted.

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 5446 (The Nuclei of Nearby S0 and Spiral Galaxies)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the core region of 
galaxy
       NGC-4634 to provide statistics on the nuclear cups, stellar
       condensations, and inner stellar disks and dust lanes. The
       observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were
       noted.

   1.6 Completed WF/PC-2 5667 (Binaries in Globular Clusters NGC-6441
       Image (FOS 37) Carry-over Observation)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the globular cluster
       NGC-6441 using several different filters. These will be "early-acq"
       images that will be used to locate objects with a ultraviolet excess
       for later observations. The observations were executed as scheduled,
       and no anomalies were noted.

   1.7 Completed FOC/96 5126 (Mass Exchange Binaries (FOS 34) V1343-AQL:
       Cycle 4)

       The Faint Object Camera (f/96) was used used to make observations of
       the mass exchange binary star V1343-Aql. These observations were
       taken in parallel with images of the jets in SS433 (aka, V1343 Aql)
       to look for optical and ultraviolet emissions. The observations were
       executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.8 Completed WF/PC-2 5397 (Determination of the Extragalactic distance
       Scale: Cycle 4 High)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make images of galaxy NGC-925 to be used in
       measuring the periods of Cepheid variable stars within this galaxy.
       The images were received and displayed, and no anomalies were noted.

2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

    2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions:


                            Scheduled Acquisitions : 8
                                        Successful : 7

                           FGS 1 and 2 guide star acquisition failed to
                           course track at 220/2025Z during ZOE (HSTAR
                           4866). The roll maneuver update may not have
                           corrected all of the errors accumulated during
                           the T2 slew.

                          Scheduled Reacquisitions : 7
                                        Successful : 5

                           Two failed to course track (HSTAR 4866)
                           Related to HSTAR 4866. Subsequent acquisition 
was
                           successful.


   2.2 FHST Updates:

                              Scheduled :16
                             Successful :16

   2.3 Significant HSTARs: None

   2.4 Operations Notes:

       DOB Move requested by the FOC science team

       Last week a one-step move of the COSTAR FOC M1 mirror was performed.
       The objective, as stated by the COSTAR FOC team, was to remove a
       small amount of residual coma in the FOC point spread function by
       executing a small (one-step) x-tilt change of the mirror before
       selected FOC observations which began on day 216.   This move
       changed the x-tilt from 61.9 arc-seconds to 54.8 arc-seconds.  This
       week, as part of the same analysis, the FOC team has requested that
       the DOB be moved 12 steps (about 0.2 mm) in the negative direction
       to adjust the FOC focus. This magnitude change is expected to have
       little or no effect on the other instruments using the COSTAR.

3.0 ANOMALY STATUS:
