From our Team telecon Wed June 9, 2004: * Project items for IMPACT - Current events: STEREO Mission Manager Odendahl has been appointed for post-launch project maagement at GSFC New GSFC PM contact info: nicholas.g.chrissotimos@nasa.gov phone 301-286-5108 IRT review of STEREO schedule and cost planned for June 23-24. Dave will need all updates. Next SWG planned for Sept 28-30 at APL Please track the new Project charts at the site http://sprg.ssl.berkeley.edu/impact/dwc/Schedules/ and also the critical milestones in IMPACT Critical Milestone Chart.HTM Inform Dave Curtis of any changes to your items. - Spacecraft: launch date 02/06 - Budget: Project has received our budget replan with schedule update. - Schedule: IMPACT deliveries still on old schedule (Oct 2004 FMs delivery may need to change to November) - Ops and Data Management: Peter Schroeder is preparing a simulated data processing sequence on a sample data file and may ask for input. * Instruments - SWEA FM2 has just been delivered to UCB, so both SWEAs and both MAG FMs are now at SSL for integration with electronics and testing. - Axel Korth delivered second SIT TOF board for inspection, delivery to UMD - GSFC mechanical support still under pressure - GSFC support for I&T being sought (e.g. local to APL help?) - independent door problems on SEPT and STE being worked. SWEA doors actuators need inspection. SWEA also needs vibration. - Actel issue persists, but workarounds are being implemented. - SEP SEPT detectors and HET detectors and mounts issues persist - Boom: FMs in construction. STE FM1 in thermal vac. Schedule impacted somewhat by STE problems. (Latest is a noisy preamp). - Magnetics testing and adjustments on spacecraft still in work between GSFC and APL - Power supplies: SWEA LVPS is having troubles in testing, which also impacts IDPU LVPS delivery. FM1 SEP and PLASTIC LVPS delivered. FM2 in assembly/test along with FM2 SIT HVPS. - Science: STEREO-featured session planned for fall '04 AGU. - There are currently weekly or biweekly SEP telecons on Thursdays, and periodic BOOM and IDPU meetings at UCB. All-team telecons are now once/month: 2004 IMPACT Wed. telecons, provisional dates are second Wednesdays of each month at 9AM Pacific -------------------------------------------- nominal dates: 07/14,08/11,09/08,10/13,11/10, Dec Team Meeting 12/17 or 18 - Phase C Progress Report information will be collected by Dave prior to the 15th of each month. Will now include milestone tracking. ****************************************** IMPORTANT DATES July 21 '04 SWEA/IDPU TRR Aug 24 '04 Pre-environ.
