Solar Activity

The Sun was pretty active this week with X, M and C class flares. Currently there are five active regions on disk and the current GOES level is at high C. to be at moderate to high levels over the next three days (06-08 Sep), mostly due to the flare potential and recent history of Region 2673.

How many GOES flares occurred?

 Flares above B, C, M, X class were     31    28    12     0

And how many of these are listed in the RHESSI flare list?

 Flares above B, C, M, X class were     14    13     7     0

And how many had EXCELLENT coverage?

 Flares above B, C, M, X class were      9     8     2     0

There were RHESSI flares/GOES flares 119 / 71 over the time range 30-Aug-17 06-Sep-17

The X-class flares are not reported as the data is not on the ground.

Memory Management

The SSR reached a maximum of ~70 percent and a minimum of ~30% during the week.

Spacecraft Status

Detectors 1, 3, 6 and 8 are active and taking data.

The cold plate 1 and 2 temperatures are ~156.5K and 154.8K.

Currently the Cryocooler power is ~75.3 W and the acceleration is at ~11mg
