    5757== MSP 41 ==
    5858
    59 The period covers 25 May 2019 - 29 November 2019 (orbits 2980 – 3062) and includes a season of ‘Long Eclipses’ at the start of September 2019, when all the instruments will be switched off. The magnetopause is accessible at the start of MSP41 and at the end, and the neutral sheet will be accessible for most of the MSP. There is also a moon eclipse on C1 on 1 July 2019, 15:41-16:50.

    61 There are manoeuvres during this period, and a list is included here for the MSP41.1 http://jsocwiki.rl.ac.uk/attachment/wiki/WikiStart/manoeuvres_nov2018-aug2019.pdf.
     59The period covers 25 May 2019 - 29 November 2019 (orbits 2980 – 3062) and includes a season of ‘Long Eclipses’ at the start of September 2019, when all the instruments will be switched off. It is expected that this eclipse season will last for the period of 01-11 September 2019. There are also a moon eclipses:  on C1 on 1 July 2019, 15:41-16:50; on C2 on 28 September 2019, 19:07 - 19:28; and on C1 on 27 November 2019, 22:03-22:53.

    6365Two segments have been defined for this period:
     
    7173There will also be "moon eclipses" on spacecraft 3 and 4 on 5 April 2019. On that day both spacecraft will spend about 40 minutes passing through the Moon's shadow. Thus we expect that science operations will cease for several hours around these eclipses, due to lack of power. These eclipses will take place when the Cluster spacecraft are around 48000 km from the dusk side of the Earth, so are not associated with eclipses seen from Earth. The instruments on C3 and C4 will be switched off for the period 05/04/2019 01:00 - 05/04/2019 23:00. In addition, there will be no BM1, BM2 or WBD operations on C3 and C4 between 04/04/2019 00:00 and 05/04/2019 23:00.

    73 There are manoeuvres during this period, and a list is included here http://jsocwiki.rl.ac.uk/attachment/wiki/WikiStart/manoeuvres_nov2018-aug2019.pdf. From MSP40.2, the window which defines paylad off interval after the end of manoeuvre is shortened.
     75There are manoeuvres during this period, and a list is included here http://jsocwiki.rl.ac.uk/attachment/wiki/WikiStart/manoeuvres_nov2018-aug2019.pdf. From MSP40.2, the window which defines no-science data taking interval after the end of manoeuvre is shortened.

    7577The [wiki:MP2019 magnetopause]  is accessible throughout this period and the bow shock will be accessible from early January to early May.

    89 This segment covers the period from 12 March to 25 May 2019. The magnetopause is accessible throughout this period, and the bow shock will be accessible until the end of April. There are manoeuvres on 18 March (C1), 21 April (C3), and 9 May (C3). From 18 March 2019 manoeuvre, the margin for the payload off interval after the end of manoeuvre is shortned by 6 hours in comparison with the previous margin.
     91This segment covers the period from 12 March to 25 May 2019. The magnetopause is accessible throughout this period, and the bow shock will be accessible until the end of April. There are manoeuvres on 18 March (C1), 21 April (C3), and 9 May (C3). From 18 March 2019 manoeuvre, the margin for the payload off interval after the end of manoeuvre is shortned by 5 hours in comparison with the previous margin.

    9193This segment also inludes "moon eclipses" on spacecraft 3 and 4 on 5 April 2019. On that day both spacecraft will spend about 40 minutes passing through the Moon's shadow. Thus we expect that science operations will cease for several hours around these eclipses, due to lack of power. The instruments on C3 and C4 will be switched off for the period 05/04/2019 01:00 - 05/04/2019 23:00. In addition, there will be no BM1, BM2 or WBD operations on C3 and C4 between 04/04/2019 00:00 and 05/04/2019 23:00.
