Anomalies:

DOY 066 (03/07/06)  G06-0031  DSS-27 - Loss of Telemetry
Telemetry dropped out for the last 26 minutes of the pass for unknown
reasons.  DR G106583
IMPACT:  All data was captured from the SSR's.  End of track state-of-health
check was not performed.

DOY 066 (03/07/06)  G06-0032  TAPS CSV Files
The FOT discovered that TAPS can only process a maximum of 100 CSV files
during each request.  Each CSV file contains a maximum of 30 days of data.
When the TAPS request was made to obtain the data from the beginning of the
mission to the current day TAPS could only process the first 100 CSV files
which is roughly 3,000 days.  DR CDSID 21540
IMPACT:  Since the ACE mission is already longer than 3000 days, the FOT
cannot plot data for life of mission unless multiple TAPS requests are made.
