Earlier this week, SWOT project team announced that everything is on track for starting SWOT orbit transition from the “fast sampling” phase (1-day repeat) to the “nominal orbit” phase (21 day repeat).
The transition should start on the 11th July and should finish around the 21st July (with maybe 1 week uncertainty) depending on the exact maneuver execution and performance.
