Chandra Press Room :: Operations CXO Status Reports

Operations CXO Status Report

During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as planned.

Real-time procedures were executed on Aug 7 to perform a routine self-check of the Electrical Interface Assembly (EIA) Sequencer and to perform a diagnostic dump of the Control Processing Electronics (CPE).

The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes an observation of AT2024qfm, which was accepted as a Target of Opportunity on Aug 1 and is coordinated with NuSTAR.
