LIVE SPACECRAFT DATA
Doppler
Shift Associated with Orbit Insertion (11-Sep-97)
(Updating Stopped 11-Sep-97) - This is the primary indication that the
orbit insertion is proceeding nominally. When the velocity of the spacecraft
decreases during orbit insertion there is a Doppler shift in the carrier
signal. This display will begin updating at 6:00 PM Pacific Daylight Time.
The plot should automatically refresh once every 90 seconds. If it fails
to refresh, hit the reload button.

REAL TIME PREDICTIONS
Orbit
Insertion Data - 10 Second Refresh
(Updating Stopped 11-Sep-97) - This is the primary display tracking the
progress of Global Surveyor that is currently being shown on NASA TV. If
your screen fails to refresh automatically, hit the reload button.
Orbit
Insertion Data - 20 Second Refresh
(Updating Stopped 11-Sep-97) - This is the primary display tracking the
progress of Global Surveyor that is currently being shown on NASA TV. If
your screen fails to refresh automatically, hit the reload button.
View
of Mars from the Spacecraft (11-Sep-97)
(Updating Stopped 12-Sep-97) - Computer generated view of Mars as seen
by MGS begins updating at 7:30 AM Pacific Daylight Time. Updates occur
once every 5 minutes. If your screen fails to refresh automatically, hit
the reload button. (Note: The time in white lettering on the image is the
actual UTC spacecraft time as opposed to Earth receive time. Earth receive
time is 15 minutes behind actual spacecraft time because it takes light
and radio waves this long to reach of from Mars.)
Orientation
of the Spacecraft (11-Sep-97)
(Updating Stopped 11-Sep-97) - The orientation display of MGS begins updating
at 6:15 PM Pacific Daylight Time. Updates occur once every 6 seconds and
your screen should automatically refresh once every 20 seconds. If your
screen fails to refresh automatically, hit the reload button. (Note: The
time in white lettering on the image is the actual UTC spacecraft time
as opposed to Earth receive time. Earth receive time is 15 minutes behind
actual spacecraft time because it takes light and radio waves this long
to reach of from Mars.)
