Dear Users of Aqua data,

EOS-Aqua has a routine drag make-up maneuver (DMU) planned and approved for Wednesday, June 12, 2013 (#72).

Aqua’s 19.5 second burn is planned for 163/15:25:22 GMT.
The slew out start time is set for 14:32:00, and slew back end time is set for 16:21:10.

Thank you.

EOS-Aqua Drag Make Up Maneuver POSTPONED

Post by kathys »

All,

We had to waive off the planned Aqua maneuver due to file exchange problems at the GSFC Flight Dynamics Facility (FDF).
Without being able to receive tracking data, the FDF could not perform the necessary post-maneuver orbit determination

Initial plans are to re-schedule to next week – exact date/time is TBD (Wednesday 6/19 or Thursday 6/20 most likely)

Additional details will follow as they become available

Apologies to those who are receiving this message twice.

Regards,
Angie Kelly
