STIS 9607

CCD Bias Monitor - Part 1

Monitor the bias in the 1x1, 1x2, 2x1, and 2x2 bin settings at gain=1, 
and 1x1 at gain = 4, to build up high-S/N superbiases and track the 
evolution of hot columns.

STIS 9615

Cycle 11 MAMA Dark Monitor

This test performs the routine monitoring of the MAMA detector dark 
noise. This proposal will provide the primary means of checking on 
health of the MAMA detectors systems through frequent monitoring of 
the background count rate. The purpose is to look for evidence of 
change in dark indicative of detector problem developing.

ACS 9649

ACS internal CTE monitor

The charge transfer efficiency {CTE} of the ACS CCD detectors will 
decline as damage due to on-orbit radiation exposure accumulates. This 
degradation will be closely monitored at regular intervals, because it 
is likely to determine the useful lifetime of the CCDs. All the data 
for this program is acquired using internal targets {lamps} only, so 
all of the exposures should be taken during Earth occultation time 
{but not during SAA passages}. This program emulates the ACS 
pre-flight ground calibration and post-launch SMOV testing {program 
8948}, so that results from each epoch can be directly compared. 
Extended Pixel Edge Response {EPER} and First Pixel Response {FPR} 
data will be obtained over a range of signal levels for both the Wide 
Field Channel {WFC}, and the High Resolution Channel {HRC}.

ACS 9658

ACS Earth Flats

This program will obtain sequences of flat field images by observing 
the bright Earth. Several UV filters from the interim calibration 
program {9564} require additional exposures to obtain the required 
illumination. A few UV filters from this program will be repeated to 
monitor for changes in the flat fields and to verify the interim 
results. Since no streaks are observed in the UV, the wavelength 
coverage is extended to longer wavelengths in order to explore the 
severity of streaks in the flats from clouds in the FOV. We have added 
exposures for the HRC in the visible filters to verify the results 
derived from the L-flat campaign and to explore the severity of 
streaks. We have also added exposures on WFC using the minimum 
exposure time and using filters which will not saturate the brightest 
WFC pixel by more than 10 times the full well.

ACS 9673

CCD Daily Monitor

This program consists of basic tests to monitor, the read noise, the 
development of hot pixels and test for any source of noise in ACS CCD 
detectors. This programme will be executed once a day for the entire 
lifetime of ACS

WFPC2 9676

POMS Test Proposal: WFII parallel archive proposal

This is the generic target version of the WFPC2 Archival Pure Parallel 
program.  The program will be used to take parallel images of random 
areas of the sky, following the recommendations of the 2002 Parallels 
Working Group.

WFPC2 9699

POMS Test Proposal: WFII backup parallel archive proposal

This is a POMS test proposal designed to simulate scientific plans.

NICMOS 9702

NICMOS Parallel Thermal Background

NICMOS Camera 2 pure parallel exposures in the F222M and F237M filters 
to establish the stability of the HST+NCS+Instrument thermal emission. 
This data will be compared against the already available Camera 3 
measurements in F222M which show an increased thermal background.

STIS 9706

STIS Pure Parallel Imaging Program: Cycle 10

This is the default archival pure parallel program for STIS during 
cycle 10.


FLIGHT OPERATIONS SUMMARY:

Significant Spacecraft Anomalies: (The following are preliminary 
reports of potential non-nominal performance that will be 
investigated.) None

COMPLETED OPS REQs: NONE

OPS NOTES EXECUTED: NONE

SIGNIFICANT EVENTS:

DSS-16 Interface Test scheduled for 3/10/03. Test cancelled by HUBBLE 
NOPE, DSN16 had preventive maintenance scheduled along with HST test.   
Site 16 could not support both activities.  Test will be re-scheduled 
in the near future.
