Hello,

Campaign B officially begins at 5:00 PM today (Pacific).  There will be
continuous tracking coverage for the next week.

This is the campaign associated with a nearly face-on orbit geometry.
Although the MGS transmitter cannot transmit thoughout the entire orbit,
there are no occultations.  The transmitter is only turned off for the solar
eclipse.  Currently, the transmitter is off for about 42 minutes.  There
may be a delay in DSN lockup after the transmitter is turned on due to the
completion of the HGA rewind.
