-01 Steve, Audrey, DanO 01 Dust check, cleaned gang connector after that. -02 Starting calibrations. -10 Plate 4936, N5634SGR2, Cart 1, clear sky, seeing = 1.3-1.4" 16 Sky flat, Plate 4936 -- Note that the autolog is saying 18 SUTR, but 30 were requested. 17 Domeflat (~5 sec), ~2000 counts at peak. 18 Dark frame -19 Plate 4815, M5PAL5, Cart 9, clear sky, seeing = 1.3-1.4". 19 Seeing = 1.4, S/N seems lower than expected. 20 Dust in the air, extinction higher than normal from smoke from AZ fires? 24 Seeing = 1.3" 25 Sky exposure - testing how many reads are actually being done. 30 requested. and 30 were done. 26 Domeflat (~5 sec), ~2000 counts at peak. 27 Dark 28 Another dark, because we had time. -29 Plate 4818, M13, Cart 7, clear sky, seeing = 1.1" El Paso lights not visible. 34 El Paso lights visible now, so dust/smoke clearing. 35 Sky exposure again, requesting 30 reads. 36 Domeflat (~5 sec), ~2000 counts at peak. 37 Dark 38 Another dark, because we had time. -39 Plate 4927, bulge field at 000+06, test of observing 5 degrees from moon in clear skies, seeing = 2" -39 Went to field, one of petals stuck. Had to fix. Can't see stars at field, going to FK5 star. Focus 3000 microns off from where it was supposed to be so probably we were looking through donuts. Not sure why this happened since Dan said he turned off focusing when we did the sky frames. seeing = 1.5" 43 Domeflat (~5 sec), ~2500 counts at peak. 44 Dark 45 Another dark, because we had time. -46 Plate 4929, bulge field at 004+00, test of observing 13 degrees from moon in clear skies, seeing = 1.7" 46 Seeing = 2.2" 48 Some clouds starting to get near the field. Clouds got into field somewhere during final few reads. +48 Observing sequence cut short due to sudden emergence of clouds near/in field. 49 Domeflat (~5 sec), ~2500 counts at peak. Clouds seen around the moon now. 50 Dark 51 Another dark, because we had time. -52 Plate 4945, disk field at 060+04, cart 6, 1st visit. 52 Seeing = 1.3", scattered thin clouds. 54 Clear where we are pointed, clouds elsewhere. 56 Clouds passing through around these frames (55-57). 59 Domeflat (~5 sec), ~2500 counts at peak. 60 Dark 61 Another dark, because we had time. -62 Plate 4940, disk field at 090-04, cart 4, 2nd visit. Seeing = 1.4", some clouds. 62 Seeing = 1.3" and clear. 68 Still clear. seeing 1.3". 73 Domeflat (~5 sec), ~2500 counts at peak. 74 Domeflat with new white lamps -- left on entire 5 reads. ~300 counts at peak. 75 Domeflat with new white lamps -- left on entire 5 reads. ~300 counts at peak. 76 Domeflat with new white lamps -- left on entire 30 reads. ~2500 counts at peak. 77 Dark 78 Another dark, because we had time. +78 Start end of the night calibrations.
