   MOST Science Team Praises Engineering Team


Vancouver, February 4, 2004 - During their regular meeting at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver, Canada, the MOST Science team unanimously endorsed the following statement, which they sent to the satellite engineering teams.

The MOST Science Team officially expresses its admiration and gratitude to the Satellite Teams at Dynacon Inc. and the University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies (UTIAS) for their exemplary work on the MOST Mission. The exciting scientific results which are flowing from MOST have been greatly enhanced by their continuing efforts to improve the performance of the satellite and its ground support facilities well beyond their original specifications.
We are very impressed by the high levels of technical skill, cooperation with the Science and Instrument Teams, and personal commitment to the astrophysical goals of the mission, exhibited by the engineers at Dynacon and UTIAS.
