We obtained one usable (minimum S/N limits satisfied) exposure on cart. 11, 7304. Towards the end of the night the clouds dissipated and we were able to obtain a NSE MaNGA sequence (and an additional N-dither exposure in twilight) under mostly clear skies (an occasional passing cirrus) and with good seeing (1.3-1.5"). ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon ========= Gathered mirror numbers, checked out software, guider dark, started APOGEE and BOSS cals.
