HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE DAILY REPORT #1449 PERIOD COVERED: 0000Z (UTC) 08/07/95 - 0000Z (UTC) 08/08/95 Daily Status Report as of 220/0000Z 1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED: 1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 5957 (Snapshot of 3CR Radio Galaxies) The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations for radio galaxies 3C63.0, 3C454.3 AND 3C78.0 to study the morphology of these radio galaxies. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 1.2 Completed GHRS/1 5879 (The Deuterium to Hydrogen Ration in the Interstellar Medium) The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side One) was used to make spectrographic observations of late type stars HD111812 and HD432 in order to study the interstellar medium. The objective is to determine the deuterium to hydrogen ratio in the interstellar medium in the line of sight to these stars. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted, although the acquisition and three reacquisitions failed to coarse track during the course of the observations. These events were documented in HSTAR 5249. 1.3 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 6190 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration: Internal Flats) The WF/PC-2 was used to make an internal flat filter sweep and an internal preflash level test. The internal lamp is also used as a source for the preflash test. The observation was executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 1.4 Completed GHRS/1 5870 (Dead of Sleeping? Status of Magnetic Dynamos in "Maunder Minimum") The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side One) was used to make far ultraviolet observations of solar type star HD9562. This star exhibits weak, non-variable Ca II emission and a long rotation period. The implication is that this star may have a weak magnetic field and undergoing a "Maunder minimum". The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 6125 (Imaging and Spectroscopy of SN 1885 in M-31) The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of Super Nova SN 1885 (aka, S Andromeda) which is located in M-31 (aka, NGC-224, the Andromeda Galaxy). The subsequent plan is to have the Faint Object Spectrograph obtain spectra of both the supernova remnant (SNR) and the bulge of M-31. The observations were completed as planned, and no anomalies were noted. 1.6 Completed WF/PC-2 6189 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 5 Calibration: Internal Monitor - Vis Flats) The WF/PC-2 was used to make internal visual flat calibration images. Both photometric and narrow-band filters were used. The observations were executed as planned, and no problems were reported. 1.7 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5974 (The Evolution of Radio Loud Quasars) The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the radio loud large redshift quasars MRC0022-29 and MRC0029-27. The purpose is to determine if these galaxies are from the same parent population as other kinds of radio galaxies already studied using HST. The observations were completed as scheduled, and no problems were reported. 1.8 Completed FGS 6267 (Parallax of Feige 24) The FGS were used in the POS Mode to make astrometric observations of the white dwarf star FEIGE 24 and several reference stars in order to measure its parallax. The target is one of the first white dwarfs found to be an EUV source and subsequently has been found to be an X-Ray source and an interacting binary. The observations were completed as planned, and no problems were reported. 1.9 Completed Three Sets of WF/PC-2 6253 (Pure Parallel Archive Program) The WF/PC-2 was used to execute a pure parallel program taking ultraviolet observations running concurrent with prime science observations. The intent is to search for extra-galactic sources with flux excesses at 3000 A0 and galactic sources with excesses at 1600 A0. The observations were completed as planned, and no problems were reported. 2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY: 2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: Scheduled Acquisitions : 7 Successful : 7 Scheduled Reacquisitions : 9 Successful : 9 2.2 FHST Updates: Scheduled : 14 Successful : 14 2.3 Operations Notes: There were no operational problems encountered. 3.0 SIGNIFICANT FORTHCOMING EVENTS: Nothing at this time. /DMH -END-
