Pat Slane: Mission Planning for the Chandra X-ray Observatory

The Chandra X-ray Observatory is a NASA Great Observatory operated by the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory under the direction of NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center. Complete information about science observations with Chandra can be found at the Chandra Science web page. Here I have assembled potentially useful information and links regarding Mission Planning of Chandra observations.
