For Scientists: The weekly schedule
This is subject to change without notice.
The date is in YYYY-MM-DD format. The number in () is the Day of Year. The time is in UTC.
"Start" is the time the target rises above the Earth's atmosphere
"Stop" is the time the target sets into the Earth's atmosphere
"Maneuver to" begins the slew to the next target
"Maneuver End" is the time the new target is in the IXPE FoV
Note: some weeks will not contain slews which indicates we are observing the same target all week. To avoid the Sun, some maneuvers are broken into more than one slew.
