APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday June 30, 2008 (MJD 54648) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Viktor Malanushenko Dmitry Bizyaev Dan Oravetz (swing) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We had high humidity at the first part of the night. QE g 4,5 done Signal was added to cart. 3 plate 2833. You may be laughting but the "telescope coolant pump" under the staircase at the lower enclosure does not work again. We have problem running "seestart" on "galileo", see "problems". ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- Steph and Paul mounted cartridge 1 (plate 3016) and took a pre-cal to test how SoS would handle the plugMap files for these dual-pointing plates. There are a few complications, but they can be dealt with and we will work around them when the time comes. A procedure will be written in the science plan for the upcoming July MARVELS run specifying how to handle the dual-pointing plates. Telescope Coolant Pump Circulation gauge below the stairs to the lower enclosure is reading 0. sdsshost2.apo.nmsu.edu % df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 142G 131G 4.2G 97% / /dev/sda1 99M 30M 64M 33% /boot /dev/sdb1 917G 636G 235G 74% /data sdssfiles1:/data1/data 1.5T 624G 769G 45% /files Spectro focus set for ~13C (sp1) and ~12C (sp2).
