APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Tuesday November 4, 2008 (MJD 54775) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dan Oravetz Kaike Pan ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The night was lost to clouds, high humidity. We opened for about 2 hours, but never got any useful data. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- All systems checkout out and working properly. Spectro focus checked but no adjustment made, it still set for about 7 C. Swaped imager 180 L dewar. 23:00Z started ventilation. Night: ------- 09:35Z stop ventilation due to high humidity. 10:00Z enclosure off. 10:15Z cart 1, plate 2962 (baotest). FK5 used for the field. Temperature droped to 3.5 C, did mechpiston -3000 on both SP1 and SP2. 11:40Z we noticed that there were two drops (rain?) on cloud camera, we moved enclosure back on. 11:50Z endNight rejoiced. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7792 22:43Z 23:01Z 100 O 94.55 99.12 43 ignore ---=== IMAGING RUN DETAILS ===--- ---=== SKIPPY RESULTS ===--- Run Frame nFrames stars muErr muRms nuErr nuRms rot az el --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== LTMATCH RESULTS ===--- Run Field nFields alt az nGood rowMean rowSig colMean colSig rot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== SPECTROSCOPY DATA SUMMARY ===--- Summary Checked (y/n): QA Procedures Done (y/n): UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 56248, plate -9999 ------- 22:44 56248 0.0 bias ----- sequence 56249, plate 2962 ------- 22:54 56249 10.0 flat 22:57 56250 2.0 arc 23:02 56251 3.0 arc 23:05 56252 3.0 arc ----- sequence 56253, plate -9999 ------- 23:13 56253 0.0 bias ----- sequence 56254, plate 2962 ------- 10:32 56254 10.0 flat 10:34 56255 2.0 arc ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 21:38Z 49 35 27 246 (WSW) 1328 - clouds 22:11Z 50 35 28 238 (WSW) 1198 - 22:41Z 49 35 22 231 (SW) 1342 - 23:13Z 47 36 22 241 (WSW) 1295 - 23:46Z 47 35 18 241 (WSW) 1293 - 00:18Z 46 35 24 249 (WSW) 1478 - 00:50Z 46 35 26 237 (WSW) 1488 - 01:22Z 46 34 22 256 (WSW) 1421 - 01:54Z 46 34 25 257 (WSW) 1493 - 02:26Z 46 33 22 246 (WSW) 1500 - 02:58Z 45 34 24 237 (WSW) 2179 - 03:28Z 45 35 20 255 (WSW) 2101 - 03:59Z 44 35 25 252 (WSW) 1987 - 04:29Z 45 35 27 248 (WSW) 1883 - 04:59Z 44 34 25 256 (WSW) 1525 - 05:29Z 43 33 26 247 (WSW) 1290 - 06:02Z 43 33 20 243 (WSW) 1229 - 06:34Z 42 34 28 257 (WSW) 1297 - 07:06Z 42 33 24 224 (SW) 1220 - 07:38Z 41 33 19 228 (SW) 1267 - 08:10Z 40 34 24 226 (SW) 1259 - 08:43Z 39 34 22 234 (SW) 1275 - 09:15Z 39 33 23 267 (W) 1375 - 09:47Z 39 29 16 266 (W) 1431 - 10:17Z 38 30 20 269 (W) 1537 - 10:47Z 38 31 24 244 (WSW) 1610 - 11:19Z 38 31 24 240 (WSW) 1613 - clouds 11:52Z 37 32 17 262 (W) 1615 - ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 23:30Z - Began ventilation.
