SIRTF Update
22 September 2003

This is Day 29 of the 90-day in-orbit checkout and science
verification period. The telescope temperature is now below 43 K
(-230 C), and the outer shell of the cold telescope assembly is
below 37 K (-236 C). The first SIRTF observations of a moving
target, an asteroid, were completed successfully. All systems
continue to perform as expected.
