Some fresh news from the Jason-2 control center…. All the recovery operations are going smoothly and without any trouble until now. STAM helio was achieved on 04^th April at 18:45z and the STAM Geo is now confirmed at  15:16z. On 5^th April, Jason-2 will be back in nominal mode and the core payload switch on will be performed. If everything is OK, we should resume the mission around 16:45z. Passengers will be turned on 8^th April. In addition to the satellite operations, CNES, NOAA and EUMETSAT teams have also worked on the ground facilities in order to be able to process data as soon as the first measurements will become available.
