APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Saturday June 20, 2009 (MJD 55003) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Stephanie Snedden Elena Malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! - Segue! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- It was photometric night with good seeing. Finished Segue plates: Cart 3, plate 3375 Cart 1, plate 3454 Observerd Segue plate: Cart 6 plate 3141. --=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- The daily automated cleanupMurmur failed because the murmur server was down. Had to do a dscRun stop_mursrvr, dscRun start_mursrvr, then all was well. All checked and OK. Collimate has been checked and good for T~ +14.0 C. We did not adjust it. 01:10Z - started building ventilation. Night: ========== Some clouds around but they are going away. Seeing was good and we were optimistic about doing observations tonight. 02:15Z enclosure is off Cart 3 plate 3375, segue Used FK5, but it was in fiber and we could not see guider stars, it was too bright. 03:19Z - preCalibs 03:31Z - doNextScience 1500 04:00Z - doNextScience 1500 04:27Z - mid-calibration 04:35Z - doNextScience 1500 05:02Z - doNextScience 1500 --> increased exposure time to 1800 sec to finish this plate. 05:35Z postCalib ------------------------------ IDL 5.5a> spawn,'./plate 3375' --------------------------------------------------- MJD b1 r1 b2 r2 Texp Sum --------------------------------------------------- 55003 9.7 6.5 10.3 7.7 1500.0 34.2 55003 11.9 8.0 12.0 8.9 1500.0 40.8 55003 11.4 7.9 11.9 9.7 1500.0 40.9 55003 12.6 9.3 13.7 9.7 1803.0 45.3 --------------------------------------------------- Total when ALL b,r values > 2.0: 45.6 31.7 47.9 36.0 6303.0 --> 161.2 (limit=156.5) --------------------------------------------------- this plate is DONE: Cart 1 plate 3454, segue FSonGTF 05:52Z preCalibs 05:59Z doNextScience 1500 06:26Z doNextScience 1500 06:55Z postCalibs 07:02Z doNextScience 1500 07:30Z doNextScience 1500 07:58Z postCalibs --------------------------------------------------- MJD b1 r1 b2 r2 Texp Sum --------------------------------------------------- 55003 11.1 6.2 13.9 10.2 1500.0 41.4 55003 12.0 6.5 14.5 10.7 1500.0 43.7 55003 11.1 6.1 13.7 9.6 1501.0 40.5 55003 10.3 6.2 12.9 9.1 1500.0 38.5 --------------------------------------------------- Total when ALL b,r values > 2.0: 44.5 25.0 55.0 39.6 6001.0 --> 164.1 (limit=156.5) --------------------------------------------------- This plate is DONE.
