HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE DAILY REPORT #1469 PERIOD COVERED: 0000Z (UTC) 09/05/95 - 0000Z (UTC) 09/06/95 Daily Status Report as of 249/0000Z 1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED: 1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 6188 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 5 Calibration: Dark) The WF/PC-2 was used to make internal dark calibration images. The observations were completed as scheduled, and no problems were reported. 1.2 Completed WF/PC-2 5972 (Determination of the Extragalactic Distance Scale) The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the galaxy NGC-1365 looking for standard candle Cepheid variable stars. The purpose of these observations is to help estimate the Hubble constant with an accuracy of 10%. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 5957 (Snapshot of 3CR Radio Galaxies) The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations for radio galaxy 3C36.0 to study the morphology of the radio galaxy. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 1.4 Competed WF/PC-2 5982 (Imaging of a Complete Sample of the Nearest Infrared Quasars) The WF/PC-2 was used to make two color observations of the nearby infrared quasar (IR QSO) IRAS15206. It is believed that this IR QSO resulted from the merger of two gas-rich galaxies. The observations were executed as planned, and no anomalies were reported. 1.5 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5760 (The Search for Super Planets Around Weak T-Tauri Stars) The WF/PC-2 was used to make I-Band observations of T-Tauri Class stars HBC392 and HBC403 in order to search for possible super planets by looking for thermal radiation from the planets in orbit around these stars. The observations were completed as scheduled, and no problems were reported. 1.6 Completed GHRS/1 5883 (Properties of the High Velocity Cloud Towards HD203664) The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side One) was used to make spectrographic observations looking towards the star HD203664 in order to study the properties of a foreground high velocity cloud (aka, HVC). From ground based optical and radio data, there is some indication that this HVC has substructure. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 1.7 Completed WF/PC-2 6250 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 5 Calibration: Internal Monitor) The WF/PC-2 was used to make internal bias, internal flat images and K-Spot calibrations to monitor the health of the cameras. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were reported. 1.8 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 star HD62044 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 this star. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY: 2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: Scheduled Acquisitions : 8 Successful : 8 Scheduled Reacquisitions : 6 Successful : 6 2.2 FHST Updates: Scheduled : 21 Successful : 21 2.3 Operations Notes: There were no opertional problems to report. 3.0 SIGNIFICANT FORTHCOMING EVENTS: Nothing at this time. /DMH -END-
