Detail:Starting 31/01/2023 09:39:49 S3B will start performing SRAL external calibrations over a transponder site in Leonessa. To conduct this transponder pass, the on-board Digital Elevation Model (DEM) altitude value must be temporarily updated in RAM, and is reverted immediately after the pass. A short outage immediately before and after the pass will be introduced, and data should be considered degraded as per non-nominal acquisition mode, for a total duration of approx.27 seconds over the transponder location (42.61607° N, 13.03780° E) for all relative orbits number (RON) 306 - from cycle 75 (inclusive) onwards.

Detail:NOAA has announced a GOES-16 (GOES-EAST) SEISS MPS-LO Electron and Ion Microchannel Plate (MCP) HV Bias Calibration from 20 June 16:30 UTC to 21 June 19:00 UTC. The calibration will consist of 2 hours of commanding followed by a 24.5 hour power off of the MPS-LO Deflection Electrode High Voltage (required for performance data collection). SEISS MPS-LO will experience data degradation during this 26.5 hour period until the Deflection Electrode High Voltage is powered back on returning the sensor to nominal operation. The SEISS MPS-LO Calibration will be cancelled due to Critical Weather Day or if the Space Weather environment is not appropriate for the calibration.
