Subject: 2.5m obslog 20250522 (SJD 60818) From: asimmons@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Fri, 23 May 2025 10:26:41 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday May 22, 2025 (SJD 60818) ---- Observing Team ---- Audrey Oravetz Many members of the SDSS team, including JohnD, Katie, Dmitry, and more ---- Observing Plan ---- Thu 22 May 2025 60818 dark (7.4 h) plus 1.2 h for 8 deg design ---- Observing Summary ---- We were not able to open tonight due to the ongoing work with getting the MCP internal card to reboot. Thanks to many people who worked late into the night (2am!): Katie, JohnD, and Dmitry. Tonight was used to take special calibrations for APOGEE that were requested before shutdown. ---- Observing Log ---- ============================================================================ AFTERNOON CHECKOUT ============================================================================ Given the MCP problems described in the day log and the "not operational" status of the telescope as a result, it's a limited checkout.
