[Crater-team] CRaTER D2 unusually noisy over the past 24 hours

[Jody Wilson]

CRaTER folks,

This morning before the Monday Ops telecon, I noticed that there was an 
unusually large spike in noise around midnight between Jan 7-8. I was 
going to give it more time before reporting anything about it, but the 
telecon started with a cryptic message from LROC that they had a glitch 
"over the weekend," so I went ahead and mentioned that CRaTER's noise 
level jumped to unusual levels over the weekend as well.

You can see the obvious spike in the 3-month telemetry plot:

... and in the recent telemetry data there's still noise, peaking at 
rates of over 1000, with average rates usually below 100:




GOES shows nothing unusual going on - just the declining phase of a 
moderate/large particle event:





I'll keep an eye on things.  Hopefully these are just a coincidental 
one-off events in CRaTER and LROC!
