Operations CXO Status Report

Sunday 24 October 1999 8.00am EST

During the last 24 hours, Chandra completed GTO observations of CL0117+31 with ACIS-I, Cass-A with HRC-I, performed a pre-belt ACIS CTI measurement, passed through the belts and began the post-belt ACIS CTI-measurements.

During the next 24 hours, a rapid burster X-ray source (and Chandra's first Target of Opportunity) will be observed with ACIS-S and the HETG HRC observation of G21.5-0.9.

The spacecraft systems continued to operate nominally.
