APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Wednesday January 6, 2010 (MJD 55203) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dmitry Bizyaev Elena Malanushenko Steph Snedden (afternoon) Support: Craig Loomis (MCP v6_6_3) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- 6 Jan 2010 55203.0 0.51 01:42 12:43 BOSS 11.0 hours ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Mostly overcust. We lost approximately 5 hours from behind the clouds. We observed three plates and got useful S/N: plates 3615,3639 and 3775. For the last plate, 3775, the distance between telescope and Moon was only 22 degree. We put a ticket No.507 that no information about the distance between the plate and the Moon. Craig and Robert set us up with MCP v6_6_3 for testing. Craig will be on-call while we test tonight. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Paul was working on the guider actor this afternoon. Craig and Robert set us up with MCP v6_6_3 for testing. Craig will be on-call while we test tonight. 23:18Z - started enclosure ventilation. 23:35Z - mounted cartridge 13 00:20Z - Opened enclosure.
