The Fall 2000 Eclipse and Keep Out Zone (KOZ) schedules are now available
on our web page at "www.ssd.noaa.gov".

The schedules are for both the Imager, and the Sounder instruments, and are
for both GOES-8 and GOES-10.

The schedules can be found by clicking on the entry for "GOES Special
Bulletins", and scrolling down to the entry for Eclipse Schedules, or by
directly following the link:
http://www.ssd.noaa.gov/SSD/GOES/eclipse.html
Note that all documents can be easily printed on 8.5" x 11" paper in a
landscape paper setting.  The eclipse schedules are also provided in
WordPerfect and Word format, although there have been a few problems with
these downloads (still under investiagtion).

Following are times of GOES-8 full disk scanning operations for the period
August 14, 2000 to October 16, 2000 in order to provide additional coverage
during GOES-10 Keep Out Zone (KOZ) and Eclipse periods:

AUG 14 - AUG 15  0845 to 0944Z
AUG 16 - SEP 03  0815 to 0944Z
SEP 04 - SEP 10  0815 to 1044Z
SEP 11 - OCT 11  0745 to 1044Z
OCT 12 - OCT 16  0745 to 0944Z

Following are times of GOES-10 full disk scanning operations for the period
August 17, 2000 to October 15, 2000 in order to provide additional coverage
