Being planned

LTP12

Will be planned at end of April.

Question: Do we go for a TGA?

LTP13

Planning 


Long-term trends


Recommendations 

  • CMS operations to be performed weekly, capturing interesting events where possible.
  • CMS Operator should switch on CMS ≥30 minutes earlier than the time at which the observations would start, particularly if the observations to catch (for example) a WOL would need to start at midnight. CMS operations in SOOP Kitchen are timed such that they start 30 minutes after assumed switch-on.
  • Note that From LTP04 onwards (i.e., starting from STP-154), SOC has not been indicating CMS operations in the EFECS with an RSW_EXT_SPICE. They will still be indicated with CMS “observations” in the LTP plan however.
  • For MAINT-ANY windows, since FCT can do ANYTHING in that window, it's good practice to observe right through (and for any adjoining WOLs + TCMs).


Tasks for the near- to mid-term future

  1. Move to monthly reporting with meetings ad-hoc when necessary or prudent, e.g.
    • when there are significant measurements to discuss
    • to prepare TGAs
    • whenever analysis is completed
    • discussing the write-up and submission of the analysis
  2. Availability of funds / people to carry out future work
