Daily Status Report as of 331/0000Z

1.0 ACTIVITIES SCHEDULED AND ACCOMPLISHED:

   1.1 Completed WF/PC-2 6905 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 6 Calibration: Internal =
Monitor)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make several internal calibrations =
observations including biases and internal flats as part of a Cycle 6 =
calibrations procedure.  A variety of internal exposures are run weekly =
to verify and monitor the health of the camera.  The observations were =
executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

   1.2 Completed Two Sets of FOS/BL 6683 (Eclipsing Binaries in the =
Magellanic Clouds - Fundamental Properties A)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make =
spectrographic observations of O/B Class, eclipsing binary system stars =
SMC-HV1876 and LMC-HV2274 located in the Small Magellanic Cloud.  From =
these data and the latest Kurucz model atmospheres, accurate temperatures =
will be derived.  The observations were executed as scheduled, and no =
anomalies were noted. 

   1.3 Completed Two Sets of 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 Two Sets of GHRS/2 6898 (CRIMP2: Cycle 6 =
Condensed-Regimen Internal Monitoring Program)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to perform an =
internal condensed-regimen integrated monitoring program.  This proposal =
combines into one program several of the instrument's monitoring =
observations that ordinarily are executed at the same frequency of twice =
per year.  A wavelength calibration image was also taken.  The =
observations were completed as schedule, and no anomalies were reported. 

   1.5 Completed FOS/BL 6682 (Geometry and Generalizability of the =
Reflected Light Model for Seyfert Galaxies)

       The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue side) was used to make =
spectropolarimetry observations of the Seyfert (class 2) galaxy NGC-7582 =
in order to study its geometry and the generalizablity of its reflected =
light model.  The goal is to determine if the polarization components of =
all Seyfert class two galaxies have Seyfert class one characteristics.  =
The observations were completed as scheduled, and no problems were =
reported. 

   1.6 Completed WF/PC-2 6253 (Pure Parallel Archive Program)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to execute a pure parallel program taking =
ultraviolet observations running concurrently with prime science =
observations.  The intent is to search for extra-galactic sources with =
flux excesses at 3000 A0 and galactic sources with excesses at 1600 A0.  =
The observations were completed as planned, and no problems were =
reported.

   1.7 Completed GHRS/1 6897 (Cycle 6: Condensed-Regimen Integrated =
Monitoring Program for Side One of the GHRS)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side One) was used to used to =
perform a condensed-regiman integrated monitoring calibration.  This =
proposal combines into one program several aspects of instrument's =
monitoring that ordinarily execute at the same frequency of two times per =
year.  A Wavelength calibration image was also taken.  The observations =
were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted. 

   1.8 Completed WF/PC-2 6366 (The Early Onset of Asymmetric Outflow =
During the Planetary Nebula formation)

       The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the planetary nebula =
V1899-Cyg in order to study its asymmetric outflow during its formation.  =
The purpose of these exposures was to determine the characteristics of =
the mass loss that occurs as a star leaves the asymptotic giant branch.  =
The observations were completed as planned, and no problems were =
reported.

   1.9 Completed GHRS/2 6748 (Abundances of Very Heavy Elements in the =
Early Galaxy III)

       The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to make =
observations of the very old, metal poor, halo star HD115444.  From these =
spectra, the abundances of irridium, lead, platinum, and osmium will be =
determined.  These elements are synthesized in stellar interiors by =
either rapid or slow neutron capture processes.  The observations were =
completed as planned, and no problems were reported.

2.0 FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

2.1 Guide Star Acquisitions: 

                            Scheduled Acquisitions : 6
                                        Successful : 5
                          Scheduled Reacquisitions : 10
                                        Successful : 10

       One acquisition, at 331/083045Z, obtained fine lock backup on FGS =
#1 only, when the scan step limit was exceeded on FGS #2.

   2.2 FHST Updates: 

                              Scheduled : 10
                             Successful : 10

   2.3 Operations Notes: 

       There were so significant operational problems.

3.0 SIGNIFICANT FORTHCOMING EVENTS:
