APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday June 7, 2007 (MJD 54259) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Elena Malanushenko Dan Oravetz Shannon Watters (afternoon) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The weather was very good tonight, photometric for most of night. Three plates are DONE (1789,2743, 1832) and we obtained good signal on two others (1819 and 2191). We used the new poiting model and it works very good. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- All systems checked and working. The spectrograph focus is set for ~10C. Night: ----- Applied the new pointing model obtained yesterday with bad weather condition. 02:20Z we opened the enclosure. Plate 1789, cart 2, chunk Used fk5 to find guider stars. 03:28 Z preCalibs 03:35Z, 03:52Z, 4:10Z science, exposure 900s. DONE with s/n=14.9, file 45171, plug new plate 1791.
