APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday February 3, 2006 (MJD 53770) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Swing: K. Pan Night: M. Harvanek, V. & E. Malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Light cirruse before sunset, then mostly is clear sky . We are finished 7 plates, and part of another one. It was some confusion with telescope laptop (see log), but we lost only 12 min approximately. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: Spectrograph focus checked and no change made. The best focus temp is around 1-2 C. As usual, details in problem section. 23:00Z Fans on, louvers open. 23:20Z east door open and west door craked. cart 8 (plt 1245) mounted on telescope. Data from 53703-53705 were removed. Now sdsshost2:/data has 71 G and sdssfiles1 632 G. Night: 00:45Z Open the dom, etc. The sky is partly in cirruses , we began spectroscopy. 01:44Z Cart.8 Plate 1245, "Orion" Using FK5 star, i.e. no guider stars. Focus loop to focusing.
