All,

   The spacecraft is nominal. The sun maneuver was successful. I was able to set the static Z rate during the contact. The star tracker percent valid was@58. I was unable to switch connections from maestro3 to maestro1 for testing. When the NMC tried they saw that the connection to maestro1 would not connect properly. I will talk to SSC on Monday about this issue.

 

Tasks Accomplished:

Reset FDC Totals

Set Static Z rate
