Subject: 2.5m obslog 20211108 (SJD 59527) From: doravetz@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Tue, 9 Nov 2021 10:27:35 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday November 08, 2021 (SJD 59527) ---- Observing Team ---- Dan Oravetz Katie Grabowski (R) ---- Observing Plan ---- Tracking tests ---- Observing Summary ---- First half of the night we didn't open due to clouds. We took some FPI exposures with the new multi-mode fiber and NDx10 filter in place. A 30-read exposure produces roughly 8k peak counts in the blue channel. We collected tracking data for three tracks once we opened. All three tracks crossed the meridian. Track #1 ======== 06:01Z - Started tracking data with 0.5s exposures beginning with gimg-0033.
