1. Solar Activity

The Sun was relatively quiet, but not quiet enough for Quiet-Sun
off-pointing. There are currently two active regions on the disk,
10907 and 10908, the latter just turned around the East limb.

Goes base level around A8.

How many GOES flares occurred?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were     32     1     0     0
And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      8     1     0     0
And how many had EXCELLENT coverage?
  Flares above B, C, M, X class were      3     0     0     0
 
There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares          19 /           33
over the time range 31-Aug-06 06-Sep-06


2. Memory Management

Not an issue this week; SSR is empty by the end of the last pass of the day.


3. Data Gaps

2006-08-31 06:53 to 07:34
2006-09-04 19:32 to 19:52 (intermittent)

4. Quiet Sun Observation

With the Sun not being quiet enough and the perspective of another active
region turning onto the disk, the off-pointing had to be postponed. The active
region 10908 did indeed turn around the East limb and will likely produce some
low level activity for the next 12 days or so.
