Report for period 13 May to 19 May 2007The Entry in the Quadrature phase with fake ephemeris has been successful. The temperatures of all subsystems are also within limits. In order to perform science during this phase, a 17 hour cooling is required before any S/C communication. This has forced the missing of some of the passes at Cebreros. Not...
