During the first few days in orbit, the spacecraft and instruments have performed well. All spacecraft systems have been checked out and their proper performance verified. All systems are operating well, with the possible exception of one of the two on-board tape recorders. A possible anomaly with this tape recorder is still being investigated. The spacecraft has been in a normal attitude control mode since Day 2 and cold gas usage has been nominal with more than 90% of the gas remaining for the mission.
