Changes in the WFPC2 observation scheduling system were introduced early in 1999 primarily in order to increase the scheduling efficiency of HST observations starting with Cycle 8. First, the South Atlantic Anomaly (SAA) contours used to limit WFPC2 observations were modified slightly. ... This change results in a 3% increase in designated SAA-free orbits, which allows better scheduling efficiency, and is expected to negatively impact less than 0.1% of WFPC2 science observations. ...

The Planning and Scheduling Tool was designed allow the user easily to take advantage of all available resources of the four telescopes (LASCO's three coronagraphs and the EIT Telescope) to maximize the use of the telemetry downlink. The Planning Tool allows users to develop customized observing sequences while monitoring compression factors and on-board processing times to realistically work within the limits of the instruments. ...
