PERIOD COVERED:  0000Z (UTC) 11/02/95 - 0000Z (UTC) 11/03/95

Daily Status Report as of 307/0000Z

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed GHRS/1/2 6046 (A Search for Helium Companion of Phi =
Persei)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Sides One and Two) was used to =
make ultraviolet spectrographic observations of the star Phi Persei (aka, =
HD10516) in order to search for a helium companion star.  This variable =
star is a rapidly rotating Be class star.  During the target acquisition =
for observation #34, a status buffer error occurred that indicated the =
number of fine corrections during x-null balancing exceeded the permitted =
maximum.  HSTAR 5348 was generated to document this event.  Otherwise, the =
observations were executed as scheduled, and no further anomalies were =
noted. 

   1.2 Completed WF/PC-2 5977 (Cometary forms in the Helix Nebula)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the Helix Nebula (aka, =
NGC-7293, and PK36-57D1E) in several narrow and medium-width filters =
looking for comet-like forms.  The objective is to obtain sufficient =
spectral and spatial information to determine the nature of the comet-like =
shapes seen in this planetary nebula.  The observations were completed as =
scheduled, and no problems were reported.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 6106 (The Formation of the Galaxy: Ages for =
Globular Clusters in Eridanus)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of halo globular clusters =
in the constellation of Eridanus.  These data will be used to determine =
the age of the clusters.  The observations were completed as planned, and =
no problems were reported.

   1.4 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.  The observations were completed as planned, and no problems =
were reported.

   1.5 Completed FOS/RD 6167 (FOS Cycle 5: Dark Monitoring)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to make several =
dark calibration images. All exposures were internals. All spectra was =
done in the image mode. The observations were completed as planned, and no =
problems were reported.
