Data Capture:  100%  DOY 281-288 2012

A review of L1 orbit options was held on Thursday 10/10/2012.  The
SWEPAM instrument team has a proposal to keep the spacecraft at higher
sun angles.  The ACE project will review the options to increase the
spacecraft sun angle, including weekly attitude maneuvers and larger L1
orbits.

WS1 update:  LRO passes are moving later in the day and more WS1
engineering tests will be scheduled.
