PERIOD COVERED:  0000Z (UTC) 11/28/95 - 0000Z (UTC) 11/29/95

Daily Status Report as of 333/0000Z

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 5971 (HST Medium Deep Survey)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make long exposure, medium deep sky survey =
observations at latitudes larger than 10 degrees taken in parallel with =
the prime science observations.  The observations were executed as =
scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.


1.2 Completed Two Sets of GHRS/2 5315 (Stellar Wind Instabilities)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to obtain high =
signal/noise spectra of the N V, Si IV, and C IV lines of the O-star =
HD210839.  The objective is to monitor the stellar wind on short time =
scales at sufficiently high signal to distinguish between low-velocity, =
mechanically-driven instabilities and intrinsic, radiatively-driven =
instabilities, and to define the interaction between the two regimes.  The =
observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were reported.

1.3 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.

1.4 Completed WF/PC-2 5836 (Saturn Ring Plane Crossing Observations in =
August and November 1995)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the rings of the =
planet Saturn during the ring plan crossing in order to determine their =
thickness and distortion.  The moons Pan and Atlas will also be observed.  =
The observations were completed as planned, and no problems were reported.

1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 6250 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 5 Calibration: Internal Monitor)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make a series on internal calibration =
observations.  Internal flats, biases, and K-Spot calibration images were =
taken.  These observations are designed to monitor the health of the =
cameras.  The observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies =
were noted.

1.6 Completed WF/PC-2 6115 (A Low-Z Damped Lyman Alpha Absorption Galaxy)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to examine the spectrum of QSO PG0117+213 in =
order to observe the low-redshift damped Lyman Alpha absorption.  It is =
thought that this absorption may be caused  by a spiral galaxy in the line =
of sight to the QSO.  It is expected that the QSO will show saturation and =
bleeding, since the area of interest is within a few arcseconds of the =
QSO.  The observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were =
reported.

1.7 Completed WF/PC-2 5998 (The Evolution of Massive Stars: Closing the =
Loop Observationally)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to  make observations of (OB Class) massive =
star M-33-FLD2 which is located in the Andromeda galaxy.  The goal is to =
study the evolution of this class of massive stars.  The observations were =
executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

1.8 Completed WF/PC-2 5845 (Polarization of Disks around T-Tauri)

       The PC and polarization filter POLQ were used to image the =
nebulosity surrounding the T Tauri star HL-Tau.  These data will test =
various models for scattered light from central sources.  Systematic =
errors will be avoided by using one polarizer and allowing the spacescaft =
roll to provide the rotation by observing the target three times at 120 =
day intervals.  The observations were executed as scheduled, and no =
problems were reported.

1.9 Completed WF/PC-2 5958 (HST Observations of New Gravitational Lens =
Candidates)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of object 0956+122 which =
is a candidate for a new gravitational lens system.  The observations were =
completed as planned, and no problems were reported.

2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

   2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: 

                            Scheduled Acquisitions : 9
                                        Successful : 9

                          Scheduled Reacquisitions : 6
                                        Successful : 6

   2.2 FHST Updates: 

                              Scheduled : 15
                             Successful : 15

   2.3 Operations Notes: 

       A TTR was written to document the fact that STGT was unable to =
support two service requests totalling approximately ten and one-half =
minutes.  As a result, 16 seconds of engineering data was lost.

       Over the last several days, the coldest battery #6 temperature =
observed by flight operations personnel was -4.57 degrees C.  All of the =
batteries generally range between -2 degrees C and -4.17 degrees C.

3.0 SIGNIFICANT FORTHCOMING EVENTS: 

        SMGT-29 will be run today.
