The target - TXS 1713+218 - is being observed by ACIS-S for 5 hours and 33 minutes. The observation started 5 hours ago and ends in 45 minutes, and is part of the proposal Examining the Variability of High-Redshift Jets. The target - also called QSO B1713+218 - is located in the constellation Hercules and is a Quasar. The source is so bright in X-rays that only half of the chip is used for the observation. More information on the target can be found at SIMBAD. See related observations: 3C 257 (26899); 4C +05.34 (26903); 4C+23.56 (26900); 4C+25.21 (26902); 7C 1754+6737 (26904, 29126); B3 0727+409 (26901); B3 1239+376 (26906); QSO B1508+572 (26908).
This is a joint observation with Hubble Space Telescope (HST) (for 1 hour and 6 minutes). However, it does not necessarily mean that the observations will be done at the same time! This is a time-critical observation.
