ROSAT Guest Observer Facility

ROSAT Status Report #75:

December 13, 1993


Check your coordinates!

We have become aware of at least one recent observation that was mispointed as a consequence of the error in RPS that was discovered just before the AO4 due date ( Status Report #49). Basically, the error caused a displacement of digits in the declination field on the individual target forms. the target summary forms and, more importantly, the mail message generated by RPS for electronic forms submission, did not contain this error. If you used RPS to produce your AO4 target forms, and did NOT submit them electronically, please check your target sheets against the real target coordinates. Send any discrepancies you discover to rosat@rosserv.gsfc.nasa.gov.
