APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Wednesday August 22, 2007 (MJD 54335) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- dayShift: Howard Brewington Observers: Dan Oravetz Audrey Simmons ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The night was lost due to radar returns and high humidity. (P.S. There is another dead rat in the trap - south end of enclosure... ewe) ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ----------- The spectro focus/collimation was checked but not adjusted; it's set for about 15-degrees C. I cleared the only available MJD on sdsshost2:/data/* The disk space is now: /dev/md6 367G 323G 26G 93% /data sdssfiles1:/data1/data 1.5T 517G 876G 38% /files Watcher reported sp2's mechanicals as "Not connected." Other misc Watcher messages are posted in the Problems Section. Night: ----------- We never opened due to radar returns and humidity. 10:32Z - endNight rejoiced. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6902 21:31Z 21:55Z 100 O 2.71 8.74 49 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): yes QA Procedures Done (y/n): yes UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 46101, plate -9999 ------- 21:15 46101 0.0 bias ----- sequence 46102, plate 2620 ------- 21:48 46102 10.0 flat 21:51 46103 2.0 arc 21:55 46104 3.0 arc 21:57 46105 3.0 arc ----- sequence 46106, plate -9999 ------- 00:42 46106 0.0 bias 00:57 46107 0.0 bias ---=== 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 20:27Z 57 47 1 83 (E) 2160 - Cloudy, rainy 20:59Z 58 48 6 83 (E) 1199 - " 21:29Z 57 51 10 164 (SSE) 1279 - " 22:01Z 58 49 11 70 (ENE) 917 - " 22:31Z 59 43 18 125 (SE) 589 - " 23:03Z 59 43 15 120 (ESE) 415 - " 23:35Z 61 41 14 125 (SE) 429 - " 00:07Z 61 43 10 89 (E) 422 - " 00:39Z 61 41 6 94 (E) 405 - " 01:11Z 62 48 14 172 (S) 874 - " 01:44Z 63 48 11 176 (S) 805 - " 02:16Z 63 46 16 182 (S) 814 - " 02:48Z 62 46 10 184 (S) 809 - " 03:20Z 63 43 14 189 (S) 665 - " 03:53Z 58 46 4 288 (WNW) 1477 - " 04:25Z 55 50 9 180 (S) 1098 - " 04:57Z 54 51 8 198 (SSW) 803 - " 05:29Z 55 50 17 177 (S) 817 - " 06:01Z 55 50 18 171 (S) 867 - " 06:33Z 56 46 10 188 (S) 727 - " 07:06Z 57 47 11 181 (S) 658 - " 07:38Z 58 47 13 198 (SSW) 737 - " 08:10Z 58 47 7 192 (SSW) 775 - " 08:42Z 57 47 14 200 (SSW) 841 - " 09:14Z 57 48 15 203 (SSW) 777 - " 09:50Z 57 48 14 201 (SSW) 785 - " 10:22Z 57 48 15 193 (SSW) 742 - " ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- We never opened. 10:31Z- Enclosure is on, doors and louvers are closed, and fans are off.
