At least I got a reply, but the answer wasn't very useful unfortunately.
What is "HRD data" anyway?

Hello friends

I guess you have seen this, but I link here in anycase

http://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/NPP/news/viirs-status.html

Looks like there is some problems with the VIIRS mirror coating. Lets
hope the influence is as small as stated in the text.

Regards
