Subject: | NSA/TSI/C1 - camera lens covered |
DataStreams: | nsatsiskycoverC1.b1 |
Description: | The shadowband was not properly masking the sun so the camera lens was covered on 4/13 to prevent damage to the CCD. On 4/20, the mirror was blown off by a snow storm and the instrument was brought inside for repair. The mirror was replaced, the lens uncovered, and the instrument reinstalled. |
