PERIOD COVERED:  0000Z (UTC) 06/27/96 - 0000Z (UTC) 06/28/96

Daily Status Report as of 180/0000Z

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 6452 (Global and Temporal Coverage =
of a Atmospheric Regions of the Planet Jupiter)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of selected regions of =
the planet Jupiter in order to investigate its atmospheric dynamics.  =
These data will be used in the interpre-tations of the observations made =
from the Galileo Mission.  The observations were executed as scheduled, =
with no anomalies noted.

   1.2 Completed WF/PC-2 6004 (Direct Measurement of the Mass =
Distribution in the Rich Cluster Abell 1689)

   The WF/PC-2 was used to make very deep observational exposures of the =
rich galactic cluster Abell 1689 in order to make direct measurements of =
its mass distribution.  The goal is to use the images of the blue, =
background galaxies that are distorted by the gravitational field of =
Abell 1689 and to map the distribution of the mass in the cluster.  The =
observations were completed as planned, and no anomalies were reported.

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2/GHRS/1 5828 (HST Far-UV Imaging and Spectra of =
Jupiter Coordinated With the Galileo Probe)

       The WF/PC-2 and the High Resolution Spectrograph (Side One) were =
both used to make images and ultraviolet spectrographic observations of =
the planet Jupiter in order to study the auroral zones located near the =
planet's magnetic poles and other high latitude areas.  These =
observations are to be taken at the same time that the Galileo spacecraft =
makes spectral observations.  The observations were completed as planned, =
and no problems were reported. 

   1.4 Completed FOS/RD 6577 (An Expanded Survey for Study of the =
Lyman-Alpha Line and QSO Mg II Absorption)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to make =
observations of the QSO PKS0823-22 in order to make a survey of the =
Lyman-Alpha line and the 68 Mg II absorption line system.  The =
observations were completed as scheduled, and no problems were reported. 

   1.5 Completed WF/PC-2 6193 (PSF Characterization)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make several observational images  of the =
large globular cluster Omega Cen using the main photometric filters.  =
During these exposures the spacecraft executed a 4X4 dwell scan so that =
the images of the object fell at 16 different locations on the CCDs.  =
This is to sample the point spread function (PSF).  The observations were =
completed as planned, and no problems were reported.
