Subject: CHAMP Apogee Burn Manoeuvres

Dear colleagues,

  please be informed about an upcoming orbit manoeuvre for CHAMP
  on Monday/Tuesday week 24. From June 10th, 2002 12:24 UTC till 
  June 11th, 2002 18:30 UTC a set of 20 apogee burn manoeuvres 
  (i.e. 1 burn/orbit, burn duration approx. 45 min/burn) will be
  performed in order to rise CHAMP&#180;s altitude. Due to the dense 
  succession of burns, GFZ will stop delivery of orbit predictions
  for CHAMP during that period. GFZ plans to come up with updated 
  predictions some time after the final burn on June 11th, or June
  12th latest.

Best regards,
R. Koenig,
R. Schmidt
