Once open, we obtained five 50 minute exposures on five plates and one 50 minute template on one of the plates. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- No problems during checkout. Night: ------ Opening was delayed because of radar return and clouds. The PT Watcher server disappeared at some point. It was restarted. 04:55Z - Cartridge 8, ET Plate 8021 Needed an FK5 One 50 minute exposure 05:59Z - Cartridge 7, ET plate 8022 GSOGTF One 50 minute exposure 07:03Z - Cartridge 1, ET plate 8026 Needed an FK5 One 50 minute exposure 08:04Z - Cartridge 9, ET plate 8028 GS on edge of fiber 10 One 50 minute exposure 09:05Z - Cartridge 6, plate 8027 GSOGTF One 50 minute exposure, one 50 minute template endNight rejoiced. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== IMAGING RUN DETAILS ===--- ---=== SKIPPY RESULTS ===--- Run Frame nFrames stars muErr muRms nuErr nuRms rot az el --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== LTMATCH RESULTS ===--- Run Field nFields alt az nGood rowMean rowSig colMean colSig rot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== SPECTROSCOPY DATA SUMMARY ===--- Summary Checked (y/n): QA Procedures Done (y/n): UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 45090, plate -9999 ------- 01:04 45090 0.0 bias ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 23:53Z 47 34 9 355 (NNW) 866 - clody 00:25Z 46 35 5 23 (NNE) 1067 - ' 00:58Z 49 30 1 7 (N) 1383 - ' 01:30Z 52 25 4 0 (N) 1020 - ' 02:02Z 52 24 7 2 (N) 1107 - ' 02:34Z 53 22 7 2 (N) 1137 - ' 03:06Z 52 22 9 303 (WNW) 1135 - ' 03:38Z 51 23 8 284 (WNW) 1115 - ' 04:10Z 52 23 10 314 (NW) 1070 - ' 04:43Z 49 25 5 331 (NNW) 1026 - mostly cloudy 05:14Z 49 26 9 0 (N) 1018 - ' 05:46Z 49 24 6 357 (NNW) 947 - partly cloudy 06:18Z 49 25 5 18 (NNE) 984 - ' 06:51Z 53 18 11 21 (NNE) 960 - ' 07:22Z 52 17 2 353 (NNW) 939 - ' 07:55Z 52 23 0 298 (WNW) 862 - ' 08:26Z 50 23 5 196 (SSW) 922 - ' 08:58Z 49 24 8 137 (SE) 926 - mostly clear 09:29Z 49 25 4 114 (ESE) 1120 - ' 10:00Z 50 25 7 223 (SW) 1054 - ' 10:32Z 49 26 7 181 (S) 1062 - partly cloudy 11:04Z 49 27 7 174 (S) 1143 - ' ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 01:34Z - Started building ventilation 05:00Z - Opened building 05:05Z - Changed imager 180 liter dewar 11:09Z - Closed building.

This was done as a precaution, since it's likely the only people around tomorrow will be observers, and they will show up in the afternoon.
