APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday April 18, 2003 (MJD 52748) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Swing: Pete Newman Night: Dan Long Jurek Krzesinski Support:Connie Rockosi Gjas Miknaitis Steph Snedden Scot Kleinman ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Time Domain Imaging ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- After a delay at the start due to clouds and dust, we did a binned ecliptic scan in two overlapping one hour strips( runs 3862, 3863). Unfortunately there were a lot of clouds after about the first half hour. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- After looking promising in the afternoon, the dust counts shot up shortly before sunset. Clouds moved in a little after sunset and stayed until an hour after twilight. The dust also subsided then and we decided to open. This left us with a couple of hours to try the binned ecliptic scan. We did it in two overlapping one hour scans. It is the best data we've been able to get attempting a binned ecliptic scan, however that isn't saying much. Clouds moved in during the first half of the first scan and stayed for the rest of the time. We took data anyway in hopes it would at least make it through the pipe lines as a test. The tapes were put in the Omaha drives and apo_daily_tapes was started. endNight finished but wasn't very happy. Is this what one expects to see from endNight when archiving binned scans? endNight output in problems section. 3860 binned bias ( left flavor as bias.

Pete declared the new version of mcp_fiducials (v1_5) to be current, did a switchMcp, and rebooted the MCP. The previous current version was v1_4. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Unhappy endNight output: im> endNight -doImager -doTpm makeRunLog completed successfully for run 3864. im> endNight -doImager -doTpm endNight: Let me ask you some questions right now. endNight: Do you want to ship tapes?
