Constraints from MOC, to be taken into account when scheduling first STPs' deadlines - see email Samanta 29 June:
Dear SOC,
We are starting to plan the next conjunction (23/09/2022 to 04/10/2022).
In your wiki I can only see your deliveries up to STP223 (LTP8), but nothing on LTP9 yet.
When scheduling the deliveries, could you please consider delivering STP224&225 before the 19/09 (i.e. latest 18th EOB)?
That would allow us doing all the pre-checks on the 19th, planning on the 20th and two uplink opportunities before the conjunction starts.
Please, let us know the STP224 and STP225 delivery dates when available.
Many thanks,
Samanta
