Target : (for example: Titan)
Enceladus, Tethys and Dione
Pointing: (feature or position on target, slit orientation, module used…)
Target to star
Estimated Data Volume: (in Mbits)
32 kbps * duration
Instrument Set Up: (use ODC’s from ODH or suggest alternative setup)

Observation Name – Science is working on an observation naming convention. It’s not
quite ready yet. So use a name that makes sense for the observation. We will switch to
science-approved names later on.
Activity Start Time – The time at which the activity should begin. If not known, provide a
time window.
Activity Duration – The duration of one instance of the activity.
Number of Iterations – The number of instances of the activity.
Interval Between Iterations – The time between the start of one iteration of the activity.
Pointing – The simplified general pointing profile for the activity. Indicate the module
(GENMOS_AB for example) that should be used to implement the pointing. In addition,
when possible, attach CASPER screen dumps and/or CASPER RWF files.
