APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday March 15, 2007 (MJD 54175) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Swing: Kaike Pan Night: Shannon Watters Viktor Malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Tonight was clear sky, with variable seening and clouds. We worked with 8 plates and 6 of them had declared as DONE. Fro 2 others obtained acceptable S/N. Some problems: -- Many times the weather's web page ("APO Weather Status") was broken and restarted himself. The same story and with 'displayweath' on 'galileo'. -- On 'galileo' & 'dimm' computers necessary change system time on 1 hour... -- No other problems. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Spectro focus adjusted. Now set for about 8 C. Cart 4 mounted for the beginning of the night.
