Subject: Re: [sdss3-25mlog 40] 2.5m obslog 20110311 (MJD 55632) From: David Schlegel Date: Sat, 12 Mar 2011 12:10:28 -0800 Kaike, Could you just give us a quick description of the "bad" exposures from last night? It looks like the last exposure on plate 4746 was stopped because there was enough S/N on the previous ones? The last exposure on plate 4016 is more confusing, since it looks like the collimators must have moved a significant amount during the exposure.
