APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Saturday December 16, 2006 (MJD 54086) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Swing Viktor & Olena Malanushenko Observers: Olena & Viktor Malanushenko ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Cloudy at the evening. Clear sky from 04:00Z with huge seeing (up to 3-3.5 arcsec). We finished 5 plates and have obtained some signal for two others. No serious remarks or problems. We have question about Cart.3 Plate 2638: this is 'baotest157'. Corresponding science plan quolity (S/N)^2 > 20 should be obtained for all cameras. But from our current result there is no singificant signal on both 'b' cameras. What should we do with this plates tomorrow ? ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- No problem to report with Afternoon checkout. Spectro focus was checked and not adjusted: detail in the Problems section. The Spectro are set for a Temp = 4-5 C.
