1. STEREO Science Center Status Report William Thompson NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Phase E Kickoff Meeting February 23, 2007

2. Thompson – November 2004 - 2 STEREO - Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory Mission STEREO MOR SSC Requirements 1.0Archive 1.1Obtain Level-0 and Mission Support data for permanent archive. 1.2 Obtain higher level data and analysis software from instrument working archives. 1.3Insure that data and software are available to international scientific community (esp., European co-I contingent) and the public. 2.0Space Weather Beacon 2.1 Capture real-time space weather beacon data from MOC during DSN contacts. 2.2Capture real-time space weather beacon data from NOAA Antenna Partners. 2.3Process, display, and provide an online browse archive of space weather data for mission lifetime. 3.0Focal point for science coordination 4.0Focal point for E/PO/PAO

3. Archive Status Currently working: Telemetry ingest Archiving of MOC data products –Level-0 telemetry organized by year and month –Generating DSN schedule summary page Archiving of instrument data –SECCHI, PLASTIC, SWAVES Virtual Solar Observatory –Serving SECCHI and PLASTIC data Software distributed through SolarSoft library –Organization of SPICE ephemerides within SolarSoft SPICE orbit web browser, “Where is STEREO?”

5. STEREO Orbit Tool Web-based tool for plotting STEREO’s position in the solar system. Can also plot Ulysses and Messenger positions, Parker spiral. Also prints out summary information. Uses IDL RPC server, with a PHP front-end.

6. Beacon Status Ephemerides and viewperiod files being generated for ground stations. Successful tests of beacon reception Chilbolton, England and Koganei, Japan Locked onto both spacecraft and recorded telemetry Sent telemetry through socket connection to SSC server Automatically processed telemetry into data files and web plots –Additional work needed send telemetry in realtime –Tests from Fairbanks, Alaska expected next week Also processing realtime telemetry from DSN through MOC interface. –Processing SECCHI, IMPACT, PLASTIC Realtime SECCHI beacon images are now online. –IMPACT/PLASTIC plots are imminent –SWAVES onboard software change by end of month

7. Beacon & Daily Summary Plots In-situ plots & data not yet “live”

8. Science Coordination Status Planning Calendar & Meeting Minutes DSN Summary Science planning web pages: –Current plans Archived as-run plans –DSN Schedule Summary –Weekly meeting minutes –Early Orbit Summary –STEREO Orbit Tool

9. Education & Public Outreach Includes coordination with NASA Portal Galleries, classroom activities, etc.

10. Future Work Beacon processing: –Need new software from instrument teams (IMPACT, SWAVES) Daily summary plots: –Same comments as above –Need to incorporate non-STEREO data SolarSoft has software to retrieve WIND, ACE, SOHO data Image/plot search tool –Plan to build on SOHO tool “Latest events” pages under development
