    Sector Notes

    Noted Issue Description
    Spacecraft pointing Sector 49 consists of observations of the northern ecliptic hemisphere, with Camera 4 pointed near the north ecliptic pole. Camera 4 alone was used for guiding in both orbits.
    Scattered light At the start of orbit 105, the Earth crosses through Camera 1, saturating the CCD detectors and/or causing strong glints. At the start of orbit 106, the Earth and then the Moon moves through Camera 1, saturating the detectors and causing strong glints and scattered light signals in Cameras 1 and 2.
