APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday December 8, 2008 (MJD 54809) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dmitry Bizyaev Viktor Malanushenko Steph Snedden (swing) Nathan DeLee (UF) Jiang Peng (UF) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- 8 Dec 2008 54809.0 0.73 MARVELS until 10:27 (9.5 h), then BOSS/SEGUE (2.0 h) ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Clouds, snow and fog all night. We did not observe. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- Snow and fog prevented all but a minimal afternoon checkout. The western enclosure door let a lot of rain and snow into the upper enclosure. Some of it was sopped up with absorbent pads, but there was more that I didn't get to, because the western end of the ceiling was still dripping. Spectro focus was in spec at an air temperature of about 2 C. I left the focus alone. No imager bias was taken, since Connie had appropriated ad1 on the astrometric crate for new spectrograph camera tests. Data from MJD 54770 was deleted from disk. The disk space is now: /dev/sdb1 917G 817G 55G 94% /data sdssfiles1p:/data1/data 1.5T 918G 476G 66% /files Fog and clouds at sunset. No ventilation. Night: ----- Fog and clouds all night.
