------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: R. McMillan, J.Huehnerhoff
Start of night is cloudy with on/off rain.
An In-Dome pointing model was run again to exercise the drives.  There
were two azimuth servo Errors.  The first occurred at UT 02:58 at an
azimuth of -14.7.  The second occurred at UT 04:24:18 at an azimuth of
43.2.  At UT 06:39:35 there was an altitude servo error (at 52.7 degrees).
LCROSS practice run went smoothly and with the exception of not being able
to see the moon AGILE and telescope behaved well.
