PERIOD COVERED:  0000Z (UTC) 09/28/95 - 0000Z (UTC) 09/29/95

Daily Status Report as of 272/0000Z

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 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.

   1.2 Completed WF/PC-2 6184 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 5 Photometric Calibration
Monitor UV/Opt STD)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make ultraviolet and optical calibration
images of standard star GRW+70D582.  The purpose is to monitor the
photometric stability and quantum efficiency of the WF/PC-2 from the far
ultraviolet to the near-IR.  The observations were executed as scheduled, and
no anomalies were noted.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 6187 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 5 Calibration: Earth Flats)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make Earth-streak, flat calibration images. 
These streak-flats will be used to produce flat fields, to map the OTA
illumination pattern and, in combination with other data, to produce new
superflats. T he observations were completed as planned, and no problems were
reported.

   1.4 Completed GHRS/2/1 6084 (The Rotation, Masses and Chemical Abundances
of the White Dwarf in WZ-Sge)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (both Sides One and Two) were used in
the Rapid Mode to make observations of the white dwarf star in the variable
star system WZ-Sagittae in order to study its mass, rotation, and chemical
abundances.  This dwarf novae system consists of a white dwarf, an accretion
disk, which surrounds the white dwarf, a secondary star and a mass stream. 
The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 5957 (Snapshot of 3CR Radio Galaxies)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations for radio galaxy 3C356.0 to
study the morphology of the radio galaxy.  The observations were executed as
scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.6 Completed GHRS/1 6090 (UV Spectroscopy of Two Ultra-Hot White Dwarf
Candidates)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side One) was used to make
far-ultraviolet spectrographic observations of the star HE0504-240 which is a
ultra-hot white dwarf candidate.  The spectra will be used to confirm the
star's temperature.  The observations were completed as planned, and no
anomalies were reported.

2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

   2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: 

                            Scheduled Acquisitions : 12
                                        Successful : 11

       One acquisition, at 272/075053Z, failed.  There was no
       dual axis update prior to the acquisition.  HSTAR 5307
       was written to document the event.

                          Scheduled Reacquisitions : 6
                                        Successful : 6

   2.2 FHST Updates: 

                              Scheduled : 12
                             Successful : 12


   2.3 Operations Notes: 

       There were no significant problems to report.

3.0 SIGNIFICANT FORTHCOMING EVENTS:
