----  Observing Team ----
Daniel Oravetz
Audrey Oravetz
---- Observing Plan ----
APOGEE/MARVELS/BOSS Science
---- Observing Summary ----
The entire night was lost due to clouds, a few snow flurries, and humidity.
Kyle requested that we take some in-focus hartmanns and cals on 3 different
cartridges, 1 being cart 16. We took data for cartridges 10 and 12, but cart 16
was requested not to be in the cartridge bay tonight. So, data for cart 16 will
have to be taken on another night or afternoon.
---- Observing Log ----
Afternoon:
----------
Humid, cloudy, and a few snowflakes still in the air at 23:12Z. Started APOGEE
cals. Turned on MARVELS lamp. Mounted cart 12. Took a few biases, darks, cals.
Night:
------
01:23Z - Ran hartmanns and took cals for cart 12 (in preparation for Kyle's
cloudy night task), but could not complete the task at this time because the
weather would not allow us to open the doors nor move cartridges around outside.
09:19Z - Tried cloudy night task again. Took hartmanns, focused spectrographs,
and took cals for cartridges 12 and 10. 16 was not available in the cartridge
bay. We are going to have to get the data for 16 another night or afternoon.
Data for cart 12:
In focus hartmanns - 139726-27
Cals - 139728-29
Data for cart 10:
In focus hartmanns - 139734-35
Cals 139736-37
11:58Z - Still humid and cloudy. Better luck tomorrow.
