Cycle 17 Proposal Pool (2)

• Program Coordinators (PCs) are processing
  observations in the pool 7000 external and
  7000 internal orbits. Eight calibration
  proposals still to be submitted.
• Instrument teams have been reviewing these
  observations and will have most done before SM4.
  Remaining will be done according to Long Range
  Plan schedule.

  when the ground system is reconfigured for 3 gyro
  mode.
• Time-critical Cycle 17 GO observations have been
  executing in 2-gyro mode since October 2008 (96
  orbits so far).
• After SM4, all remaining Cycle 15, 16 proposals
  will be re-worked for 3-gyro mode.
• Remaining NICMOS observations are being switched
  to another existing or future instrument, when
  possible to reach scientific goals without
  NICMOS.

Data Release Policy

• HSTMO, Science Policies Group

23
Data Release Policy Implementation (1)

• OPB has set initial proprietary period to one
  year for proposals using either new SIs or
  serviced modes.
• ERO and ERS data will remain proprietary until
  their press release.
• SMOV and calibration data for COS, WFC3, and the
  serviced modes will remain proprietary until ERO
  press release.

24
Data Release Policy Implementation (2)

• Manual process for shortening release dates will
  continue
• based on proposal ID, not visit or SI mode
• GO data taken with new SIs and with serviced
  modes will be embargoed
• authorization to access data from proposal will
  be withheld until the PI agrees not to discuss or
  present the data publicly until after ERO press
  releases

25
Embargo Agreement Text (as revised per STScI RR
AI04)
Because NASA has not yet made the first Early
Release Observations (EROs) public for the new
and serviced instruments, the STScI requires that
you agree to abide by the restrictions below
before we can make your data accessible to you
for retrieval. Once we receive an email reply
with your acceptance of these restrictions, we
will allow you access to your Cycle 17 data. All
Guest Observers requesting access to their Cycle
17 data from new and serviced instruments before
the NASA ERO press release date must agree to
refuse any public discussion or display of these
data and/or any scientific results derived from
them until after the official NASA ERO press
conference. Public discussions include seminars,
colloquia, press conferences, lectures,
conference posters, website postings, mass media
interviews, and journal publications. Do you
agree to these terms? Before you distribute
these data further to co-investigators or other
collaborators working with you on these data,
they must agree to these terms also.

  frame
• Proposal impacts
• 20 proposals needed to be updated (complete)
• to address above problems
• for mid-2009 targets
• Timeline Impacts
• Additional uplink requirements
• In-line commanding (PMDB) updates identified
• Updates need to be submitted for upcoming SMSs
• Several changes in activity dependencies
• Several time-dependent targets (CVZ, etc.)

49
WFC3 PLAN CHANGESSINCE SEP 2008

• SMOV transition from PROTECT to Nominal state
• Dave Hickeys testing is complete
• resulted in some adjustments to r/t commanding
  for bench thermal management

• being worked or already solved
• analysis time between iterations needs to
  increase
• Proposal impacts
• Additional CTE/Cross-Talk check during OC
• Timeline Impacts
• Sixteen additional days for OC (total 37 days)
• may be mitigated by potential for early
  completion of test
• Causes downstream delays to ACS CCD science/EROs

51
FGS PLAN CHANGESSINCE SEP 2008

• Mini-OFAD and FGS alignment (5 orbits ea.) moved
  to Cycle 17 Cal Plan
• FGS2 alignment wrt FGS 13 will be unstable in
  early SMOV
• New FGS will not be used as dominant guider in
  SMOV timeframe
• Therefore Proposals 11459 (Alignment) 11460
  (mini-OFAD) are deferred to Cycle 17
• Waiver of SMOV Requirements L.10.4.7.3.3
  L.10.4.7.3.
• Near Term Monitor of FGS2R2 Stability (4 orbits)
  moved to C17 Cal Plan
• Prop 11464 - relies on M35 which is not available
  in mid-2009
• Therefore deferred to Cycle 17 (Proposals 11874
  11875)
• Waiver of SMOV Requirement L.10.4.7.3.8
• FGS1R FGS3 Recommissioning (2 orbits) moved to
  C17 Cal Plan
• Prop 11463 - relies on M35 which is not available
  in mid-2009

• Waiver of SMOV Requirement L.10.4.7.3.7

52
FGS PLAN CHANGESSINCE SEP 2008 CONTD

• FGS2R2 AMA Adjustment Activity
• Proposal 11458 will be scheduled starting in SMOV
  Week 2 instead of Week 1
• Lessens the effect of outgassing on the
  measurement results
• Allows additional pre-look visits in Week 1 for
  target determination for Week 2 AMA adjustments
  and some scale and coarse alignment information
• Proposal impacts from FGS changes
• Nelan/Reinhart have updated SMOV proposals
• 11457, 11458, 11459, 11462
• Timeline Impacts from FGS changes
• Several SMOV days are gained by the deferrals to
  Cycle 17
• Gains are offset by decision to move AMA
  activities from Week 1 to Week 2
• FGS2R2 commissioning for guiding
• Remains at SMOV Day 42
• These timeline adjustments were worked out in the
  GSWG and SMOVWG

53
DMS PLAN CHANGESSINCE SEP 2008 CONTD

• Proposal for special BEA attitude to test Bay 10
  (SI CDH) thermal model
• Feasible in early BEA period

DatabaseSMOV Preparation Environment

• SMOV4 development utilizes the same methodology
  that was successfully used for all previous
  Servicing Missions.
• Use a separate database and disk space from
  Operations, but the same machines/servers.
• spss_sm4 database for SMOV4 development
• spss database for current SPSS Operations
• Uses the operational software and tools, but
  utilizes different PRD/SCIOPSDB and SMS
  Instructions
• Allows simultaneous Flight Operations and SMOV
  development
• Two environments are isolated
• The spss_sm4 database is managed in the same way
  as the SPSS Operations database.
• This SMOV4 environment is used to
• Prepare the SMOV proposals for execution
• Create the SMGT products
• Create the SMOV4 representative products
• Post-SM4 DRM Planning and Scheduling exercise

68
DatabaseThe Merge

• SMOV environment, spss_sm4 database, gets merged
  into the Operations environment, spss database,
  after rendezvous and berthing occurs.
• PRD/SCIOPSDB group will audit the merged spss
  database for correctness
• OPS will audit the proposals for correctness
• End-to-end process generally takes about 2 days.

• OPRs 60326 (zero-exposure time) and 60327
  (sc2dcorr fix) have been addressed.
• CALSTIS is ready to support SMOV activities when
  needed.
• NICMOS
• OPRs 61686 (pipeline update for BEPCORR and
  SAACORR) and 62269 (SAACLEAN) have been
  addressed.
• An update to CALNICB will be delivered as a
  quick-fix for 2009.2 to address OPR 61187
  (exposure-time related keywords).
• Otherwise, NICMOS pipeline calibration software
  is ready to fully support NICMOS SMOV activities
• ACS
• OPRs 62104 (time-dependent distortion keywords)
  addressed and installed in OPUS 2009.2.
• CALACS should be ready to support SMOV activities
  when OPR 62336 has been addressed with the
  quick-fix to OPUS 2009.2. This OPR corrects a
  problem with CALACS crashing with floating-point
  CCDGAIN values in the headers of RAW (_raw.fits)
  ACS files.
• MultiDrizzle
• Updates, primarily to support reprocessing,
  included recognizing WFPC2 DQ images in MEF and
  waiver-FITS format, getting full 64-bit support
  working under Solaris, processing data in native
  units or electrons, and fixing a bug processing
  ACS/WFC data in OTFR.
• MultiDrizzle remains ready to fully support all
  ACS data processing needs during SMOV and can be
  used to test WFC3 distortion calibrations in
  off-line processing as needed.

88
Calibration Pipeline WFC3

• 19 OPRs for CALWF3 itself were addressed since
  the last review.
• In addition, 7 additional algorithmic changes
  were also implemented that had no impact on
  pipeline calibration operations.
• Highlights of these fixes include
• NICMOS CR rejection algorithms now 'tuned' for
  WFC3 use
• UVIS calibrations now more robust for use with
  subarrays and L-FLATS
• Summary
• No issues remain for SMOV pipeline to fully
  support WFC3 SMOV activities

89
Calibration Pipeline COS

• 50 OPRs for CALCOS itself have been addressed
  since the last review.
• Highlights of these fixes include (but not
  limited to)
• Implementation of CSUM file generation by CALCOS
• Improvements to wavecal processing
• Proper handling of images with no data, including
  background regions of subarrays
• Support of imaging wavecals
• Improvements to finding a wavecal spectrum
• Summary
• A couple of modes remain unsupported in the
  pipeline ACQ image data will not be calibrated
  yet, wavelength calibration for NUV data needs
  improvement, and imaging wavecal for TIME-TAG
  TAGFLASH data in direct imaging mode can not be
  used to compensate for mirror/mechanism drift
  yet.
• A version of CALCOS will be available for
  off-line use by the COS team during SMOV that
  will support ACQ image calibration and include
  improved NUV wavelength calibration.
• All other modes required for SMOV support have
  been implemented, tested by the COS team and
  delivered for use in the pipeline.
