The Jason-2 spacecraft entered safe mode on Wednesday, December 26th 2018 at @01:33:54UTC, immediately interrupting its measurements.
The satellite is currently in a safe and stable Sun-pointing configuration. The analysis of the telemetry shows that the safe hold mode is consecutive to a gyro #1 disjunction.
Those anomalies are well known. Recovery operations will start after Christmas holidays period.
