APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Friday May 2, 2008 (MJD 54589) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Night: Howard Brewington, Dmitry Bizyaev Swing: Kaike Pan ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- Night was clear and photometric, with hectic seeing change in the second part. We finished plates 2930 (cart. 5), 2963 (cart. 3), 2970 (cart. 4), and 2532 (cart. 1). We added signal to plates 2931 (cart 6) and 2971 (cart 2, almost done) We are leaving the spectro dewar at 69 lbs, so please check it during the day. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- All systems were checked, and working properly. The spectro focus was set for about 8 C. Cart 5 was mounted for the begining of the night. Night: ------ 01:55Z - enclosure off. Sky is clear. Not much dust as last days, below 2000. Cart. 5 plate 2930 is on, seguefaint.
