APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday April 27, 2009 (MJD 54949) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Alaina Shelden Audrey Simmons Jon Brinkmann (support) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Closed most of the night due to clouds. We opened the last hour to observe cart 6, SEGUE plate 3387. Dithered flats and spectro biases and darks were completed. Jon Brinkmann worked on galileo for the first half of the night, so we operated without SOS and the cloud camera during that time. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Jon was working on the galileo computer this afternoon since it has been crashing the past few nights. We worked without the cloud camera, SOS, and IDL for the first half of the night. We took biases and tested the spectrographs by taking a postcal, even though we couldn't check the collimation. We were running a little low on disk space, so we deleted MJD's 54932 - 54941 from host2.

Night: ------ 02:00Z - Began series of 25 spectro biases (60788 - 60812) 03:15Z - Began series of 3 spectro darks (60813 - 60815) 04:43Z - Began 15 dithered flats plus 2 arcs (60816 - 60832). Finished without errors. 07:40Z - Jon reverted back to the origional galileo setup, so the cloud camera, and SOS are back up and running. I ran sos_redo on all activity so far. 09:35Z - Clouds parted. Opened enclosure. Mounted cart 6, SEGUE plate 3387. 09:40Z - goToField. 09:53Z - Precals. 10:00Z - 30 min exposure. Seeing 1.2" 10:40Z - 25 min exposure. Postcals. This plate is not yet done.
