OTES checkout complete

The OTES initial checkout has completed and all data/telemetry have been transmitted to the DSN. So far, we’ve received about 70% of the data from the DSN. We expect to have the remaining data later this evening. Initial assessment of the science data indicates nominal instrument performance. The instrument radiometric noise level (NESR) also looks good. Phil will try to distribute an NESR plot later this evening. All commands executed as expected and all telemetry were nominal.
