APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Tuesday June 1, 2010 (MJD 55349) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Dan Oravetz Audrey Simmons Paul Harding (support) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- BOSS and MARVELS Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- We stayed closed the first half of the night due to intermittent clouds and nearby radar returns. However, we were very close to opening several times so we did not complete the sparsed plugged cloudy night task. Observed: Cart 12, plate 4025 Cart 4, plate 3512B Cart 6, plate 3359A&B Cart 1, plate 4002A For all MARVELS observations, fibers 49/50 and 77/78 were broken. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Telescope checkout ok. Mirror numbers ok. 01:45Z - Started ventilating. Mounted cart 11, BOSS plate 3983 "sparsed plugged". There are quite a few clouds around, so we thought that we could start with the test and stop when the weather becomes better. Night: ------ 02:09Z - Guider actor not responding. All commands hang. Attempted to restart the actor with the latest version (v1_0_20h), but stageManager failed to kill the existing process and restart a new one. Paul was contacted and fixed the problem. 02:26Z - Biases. 02:30Z - Hartmanns 115933-34. Collimate was able to converge just fine on a sparsed plugged plate. 02:50Z - Mounted cart 12, BOSS plate 4025. The weather is much better now, that is why we decided to not continue with the test. There are still a few clouds around, so we are waiting just a little longer to open. 03:30Z - More clouds. More nearby radar returns too, but they look like they will pass pretty soon. 05:00Z - Opened enclosure. gotoField cart 12. 05:02Z - Hartmanns 115943-44. 05:04Z - Cals 115945-46. 05:12Z - 15 min exposure 115947. Seeing 1.8" 05:29Z - 15 min exposure 115948. 05:47Z - Cals 115949-50. This plate is not finished yet.
