6. 26 Oct. 2007COS Science Team Meeting6 SMOV4 INITIAL CONDITIONS New gyros New batteries Two new Science Instruments (SIs) –COS in place of COSTAR –WFC3 in place of WFPC2 2 Restored SIs –STIS –ACS Refurbished FGS –FGS2R2 in place of FGS2R Other effects –NICMOS “warming up” for 8-10 days

7. 26 Oct. 2007COS Science Team Meeting7 SMOV4 -BASIC APPROACH- Proceed with commissioning of existing SIs while new ones outgass Avoid “bright earth” occultations (BEA) for 21 days following Release –Use bright earth “allowances” during the BEA period Perform the “long” VDT early in BEA period FGS2R2 – Start commissioning prerequisites early using BEA-compatible targets and BEA allowances –Allows relief to FGS3 guiding asap STIS – Use BEA-compatible targets for early commissioning activities Start NCS early for NICMOS cool-down –2-week cooldown assumed for planning purposes SMOV SI commissionings proceed pretty much independently of each other. –Each SI undergoes a set of engineering activation activities, optical alignment/focus activities, and science calibrations –EROs and GO science are enable asap on a per channel basis. * BEA = Bright Earth Avoidance (period)

11. 26 Oct. 2007COS Science Team Meeting11 SMOV PROJECT REVIEW COS-RELATED ITEMS Need to study possibility of shortening the COS commissioning period. –Preliminary discussions have succeeded in shortening it by 2-3 weeks. FUV Door Opening – How many HST high voltages must be off for this operation?

12. 26 Oct. 2007COS Science Team Meeting12 SM4 SIMS/JIS & SMGT HST Project conducts a series of operational simulations (Sims) and Joint Operational Simulations (JIS) –To simulate various portions of SM4 –Familiarize participants with Operational procedures, interfaces, and protocols –Certify participants for SM4 support SIM 4 (EVA 3) COS, ACS Repair –10/11/2007 - complete SIM 7-8 (EVA 3-4) COS, ACS Repair, STIS Repair, NOBL8 –11/28-29/2007 JIS 1 (EVA 3) COS, ACS Repair –03/18/2008 Servicing Mission Ground Tests (SMGT) –Test ability of ground system to support selected SM4 and SMOV4 activities Special commanding is tested

17. 26 Oct. 2007COS Science Team Meeting17 SMOV OPERATIONS SMOV Ops begins at Release (Aug. 15, 2008) Daily SMOV Status & Planning Meetings –“Morning Meeting” –Reps from all SI/Subsystems, STScI P&S, STScI & Project Ops Some operations require realtime support from STScI/EDT team –To be discussed During ops-related meetings next year Reviewed at STScI Readiness Review next July SMOV Closure Review
