RHESSI Tohban report, 02-Feb-2004 (Groundhog Day!) to 09-Feb-2004

1. Solar Activity

GOES Level remained mostly in the B level though solar activity is 
currently (2/9/04) picking up.

How many GOES flares occurred?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were     39    11     1     0
And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were     13     4     1     0
And how many had EXCELLENT coverage?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      9     3     1     0
  
There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares          43 /           51
over the time range 02-Feb-04 08-Feb-04

2. Memory Management

SSR Fill level stayed low all week due to low solar activity.
                                                                                                           
3. Data Gaps

  An error during spin-up on monday night caused the 
the spacecraft to precess off of the Sun.  SAS was only able
to register 2 limbs from 2004-034-04:04:44 UT (feb 03) until at least 
24 hours later.  For other more mundane data gaps check the data gap page.

4. Operations Summary

  Spin-up.  Also, the venting valve was opened on 2/4/04 in order to 
relieve detector arcing.  Cooler efficiency has increased most likely
a direct result of this operation.

5. Other

  For the PDA (Palm, PocketPC, etc.) enabled Thoban, 
I thought I would quickly mention a satellite-tracking program 
called PocketSat+ which can show the current position of the spacecraft,
calculate the time of passes, and show the pass in the sky over
a particular ground station.  For more information
