Subject: 2.5m obslog 20121224 (MJD 56286) From: doravetz@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Tue, 25 Dec 2012 12:13:24 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday December 24, 2012 (MJD 56286) ---- Observing Team ---- Karen Kinemuchi Dan Oravetz Kaike Pan (afternoon) ---- Observing Plan ---- 24 Dec 2012 56286.0 0.81 01:16 12:51 00:29 12:05 APOGEE 12.2 hours ---- Observing Summary ---- Most of the night was lost to snow, wind, high humidity. We only observed 1 APOGEE plate and that was Cart. 4, 5563 under partly cloudy conditions with poor seeing. The door handle to the 2.5m enclosure broke off. It still operates, just doesn't have the handle anymore. ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon: --------- Because there is a MaNGA sky plate which use BOSS spectrographs, so the boss spectro was checked. Collimation info (with cart 11).
