[Isocops] IBEX Orbit# 175 ATS v002 - approve

All,
	I have looked at the Orbit 175 ATS v002 (No -Lo commands, 
only 1 APL downlink)

IBEX_2012_216_o0175a_v001.txt

and I approve.

	Constraint violations per .ccvr file:

IBEX_2012_216_o0175a_v001.ccvr

	due to APL-18 contacts in v001, as expected. Version 002 
removes the 2nd and 3rd contact and the constraint violation.

	The PL commands in the ATS v001 match the STF v002

IBEX_2012_216_o0175a_v002.stf

per Ken's script (thanks!).

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

IBEX_2012_216_o0175a_v001.oef

	Star tracker outage near perigee does not affect inertial maneuver.

	Moon in -LO FOV times irrelevant, since -Lo is off.

	Ground station contact times in command load match ground times in

IBEX_Orbit175Contacts_v001.txt

	for all 3 contacts, including the first APL contact; deletion 
for the 2nd 2 have been requested.

	Battery cell balancing this orbit. Commands span 1.5 hours, 
are >1 hour away from anything except a star tracker outage (which is 
irrelevant), and the FALSE Command is second as expected.

	Inertial maneuver at the end of orbit 174 left us pointing in 
a safe direction for ascending and descending macros during first 
half of orbit:
