APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday October 5, 2009 (MJD 55110) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dmitry Bizyaev Elena Malanushenko Stephanie Snedden - on call ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! Marvels! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We did not open last night because of heavy clouds and high humidity. We made several tests of Boss spectrograph for Kyle. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon -------- Telescope is checked, all systems were working properly. Boss cart 11 is mounted for tests by Kyle. All boss cameras are normal. Marvels ThAr lamp is on. Kyle was doing BOSS tests with Cart 11 inside enclosure until 01:10Z. Night ----- The humidity was ~90% and heavy clouds. We did not open and even did not start ventilation at the beginning of the night. 02:40Z The humidity was dropped to value to start ventilation. Kyle asked to make more BOSS spectro tests. We need to set spectro collimation in focus and move telescope pointing to several different positions. We used Kyle's test version of program to calculate the focus position.
