APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday February 14, 2008 (MJD 54511) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dmitry Bizyaev Steph Snedden ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Poor weather kept us from opening. Monthly imager bias and flat were done. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- No problems noted during afternoon checkout. French and crew cleaned the fiducials today. We still do not see altitude fiducials at 45, 60 and 90 degrees going up, but we see all fiducials being read going down. Night: ----- We had high winds, elevated dust and clouds at sunset. While waiting, we completed the imager monthly bias and flats. The checkBias and checkFlat warnings follow, and the vectors are not significantly changed from last month: im> checkBias 7325 33 . {32 WARN: } {32 FAIL: rightRNComp } Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-u-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-g-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-r-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-i-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-z-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-o-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-l-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-t-bias.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7325-33-s-bias.gif/gif {photo h143} {astro h142} im> checkFlat 7326 34 . {42 WARN: leftGain } {42 FAIL: } Open /skycat/imager/54511/7326-34-u-flat.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7326-34-g-flat.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7326-34-r-flat.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7326-34-i-flat.gif/gif Open /skycat/imager/54511/7326-34-z-flat.gif/gif The clouds persisted all night.
