All,
	I have looked at the Orbit 132 ATS v002

IBEX_2011_190_o0132a_v002.txt

and I approve.

	No constraint violations.

	The PL commands in the ATS v002 match the STF v001 files

IBEX_2011_190_18_38_v001.stf

per Ken's script (Thanks, Ken!).

	PL ascending and descending operations make sense with 
respect to 15 Re ascending, Apogee, and 15 Re descending times from 
IBEX_2011_190_o0132a_v001.oef
respectively.

	Moon in -Lo FOV PMT setback commands in the STF match the 
ATS; the .oef Moon-in-Lo FOV times are concentric with the STF times, 
as usual. Atypically, the .oef times are shorter than the STF times.

	No ground station contact times. I assume those must be 
loaded independently.

	No battery cell balancing commands despite being an 
even-numbered orbit. We just did 7 cycles, Orbit 130.

	Inertial maneuver at the end of orbit 131 left us pointing in 
a safe direction for ascending and descending macros during first 
half of orbit:

	No O-mode this orbit.

	No overlaps to orbit 131. I have not checked 
http://ibex.unh.edu/cgi-bin/ats.cgi, however. Transmitter on/off 
commands will still need to be added and may cause overlaps, which 
should not be a problem.

	Command Approval Checklist attached.
