Daily Status Report as of 313/0000Z

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 GHRS/2 6712 (The Gaseous Extent of Galaxies: How Far is =
Too Far?)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to make =
spectrographic observations of the quasar Q0405-1219 located in a field =
of galaxies in which proposers have carried out extensive redshift =
surveys.  A wavelength calibration image was also taken.  The =
observations were completed as planned and no problems were noted. 

   1.3 Completed WF/PC-2 6909 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 6 Calibration: Earth Flats)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the bright Earth to =
obtain streak flats which are used to construct high quality flat fields =
for the WF/PC-2 filter set.  The observations were executed as scheduled, =
and no anomalies were noted.
