The Intersex Progress Pride flag flies beneath the American flag on the center pole with the California state and NASA flag at either side. The Intersex Progress Pride flag flies for the first time at any NASA center in front of the Ames Administration Building, N200, to commemorate Pride Month.

Solar Activity
Solar activity reached moderate levels due to an M1.0/1f flare at 13/0022 UTC and an M1.7 flare at 13/1708 UTC, both from Region 3889 (S10W15, Fki/beta-gamma-delta). Region 3889 had slight growth and consolidation within its leading and intermediate spots. The rest of the spot groups were either stable or in decay. No Earth-directed CMEs were observed.
Solar Wind
Solar wind parameters became slightly enhanced after 13/0945 UTC. Total field increased from approximately 5 nT to 9 nT while the Bz component reached a maximum southward deflection of -8 nT at 13/1113 UTC. Solar wind speed remained at nominal levels averaging around 335 km/s. Phi angle was positive.
Energetic Particle
The greater than 10 MeV proton flux was at background levels and the greater than 2 MeV electron flux was at normal to moderate levels.
