The tasks to be executed during In Orbit Checkout (IOC) are listed below. These listings began as Excel Spreadsheets (hence the peculiar format). The author of each task is indicated near the bottom of the spreadsheet and corrections and changes should be addressed to them first. Bill Latter keeps the set of final IOC templates and should be kept informed of changes to templates.

Note that the IOC philosophy centers on checking pieces of MIPS building up to the full-fledged AOTs. The plan has also been driven by the need to fit within 60 days, only half of which is with the telescope at 5.5° K.
