SMOV3b PLAN

• MEASURE/MONITOR NEW SPACECRAFT BEHAVIOR
• POINTING, THERMAL, POWER
• RECOMMISSION EXISTING SIs
• STIS, WFPC2
• COMMISSION NEW SIs
• ACS
• Science/EROs in early April
• ACS SMOV complete in early June
• REVIVE AND RECOMMISSION NICMOS
• VIA NCS COOLDOWN
• Science/EROs in early May
• NICMOS SMOV complete in early August

---SPACECRAFT EXISTING INSTRUMENTS ---Progress
since 4 April TIPS

• PCS - Vehicle Disturbance Test (VDT) analysis
  uncovers PCS control-law bug that was causing
  anomalous jitter
• Jitter was also seen in FGS data
• Corrected last week
• STIS - Recommissioned
• MAMA CCD science has been re-enabled and has
  resumed
• STIS SMOV complete
• WFPC2 - Recommissioned
• UV Monitoring complete
• GO science enabled and has resumed
• WFPC2 SMOV complete
• FGS - Recommissioned
• Guiding and astrometry
• Jitter test to be repeated after PCS control law

--- NEW INSTRUMENTS --- Progress since 4 April
TIPS

• ACS
• Coarse/fine alignment completed 2 April
• ERO observations performed 1 9 April
• Media release 30 April
• SBC activation delayed to early May
• NICMOS
• Cooled to target temperature ( 75 degK)
• NICMOS re-enabled 19 April
• intentionally safed on 28 March to facilitate
  cooldown
• Filter Wheel test completes today
