ACE Weekly 10/24/2011 - 10/31/2011 All ACE spacecraft subsystems are performing as expected. ======================================================================== Orbit/Attitude: No maneuvers were completed this week. The next attitude maneuver is scheduled for Tuesday 11/01/2011. ======================================================================= OCRs: DOY 298 (10/25/2011) 1440z SWICS MOCR 338 Trigger set to Energy Only Mode with no calibration. SWICS is collecting partial science data as the instrument team is investigating the optimum configuration for the instrument and also how to eliminate the noise from the excessive triggering. ======================================================================== Activities: Data Capture: 100% DOY 296-303 2011 NOAA Space Weather Prediction Center (SWPC) started using their new data ingest server for operations on 10/25/2011 (DOY 298). The MMOC had been forwarding data to both the old and new servers since 10/11/2011 (DOY 284). NOAA SWPC disconnected their old server on 10/31/2011 (DOY 304). The ULEIS shutter autonomously closed during during last week's solar activity. The ULEIS shutter can also close down to 1% if there is enough solar activity.
