APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Tuesday October 27, 2009 (MJD 55132) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dan Oravetz Dmitry Bizyaev ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Marvels science till ~ 02:18UT, then BOSS science. ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Night was completely lost due to clouds, high wind (up to 59 mph) and high dust. We are leaving LN2 spectro dewar under 100 lbs, please check it in the morning. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon --------- 22:50Z - Verified servers were alive. 22:55Z - Turned on ThAr lamp. 22:59Z - Verified aliveness of STUI actors. 23:00Z - Started sequence of 2 BOSS biases. 23:10Z - Checked out the telescope and lower enclosure. 23:15Z - Checked mirror numbers and fiducials. 23:25Z - Began ventilation. 23:32Z - Verified that gcam imags were taken successfuly. Night: ------ 00:40Z enclosure off, despite some clouds (with no radar returns). cart. 7 is on, sode A plugged. 01:35Z wind gets over limit, dust is "yellow", overcast sky.
