20190710_152148_001.jpg Status board. Shows callup, begin of track, end of track
and DSN dish for each upcoming comm session with the spacecraft. Also shows
current s/w running and current spacecraft status. At the time
of our visit Chandra was observing the blazar Mkn421 with the ACIS-S/LETG instrument combo. |

20190710_154411.jpg ASVT. This hardware is a duplicate of much of the
avionics aboard Chandra. It thinks it is in space and responds accordingly - we
check out new procedures and run flight controller anomaly simulation exercises
using this. |

20190710_154434.jpg This is the backup SIM table. Its sibling in space
has the ACIS and HRC cameras mounted on it; it has the translation and focus motion
capabilities, and this backup lets us run tests on new procedures. |
