Clouds did not clear enough until UC03 program. NM06 had targets that set before twilight, so we finished a bit early. No problems. ------- FAILURE LOG ------- PROG INST FAILURE MODE TIME (SEDFNVOG) TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:59 ecamera 562( -768) 43 71 -0.4 1.4 1.5 1.5 -0.1 ND2 1.43 22:10 ecamera 671( -746) -73 58 -0.5 -0.5 0.0 -0.3 -0.5 ND2 2.50 00:41 dcamera 546( 114) -17 56 -3.1 -1.8 -1.2 -1.8 -2.9 -- 2.25 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 36 16 14 260 (W) 405 cloudy none 17:00 34 16 18 241 (WSW) 405 cloudy none 18:00 32 17 17 251 (WSW) 405 cloudy none 19:00 31 17 15 242 (WSW) 405 mstly cldy none 20:00 33 16 21 268 (W) 405 ptly cldy none 21:00 33 15 18 271 (W) 405 ptly cldy none 22:00 31 15 18 274 (W) 405 ptly cldy none 23:00 30 15 13 267 (W) 405 ptly cldy none 00:00 29 15 11 340 (NNW) 405 ptly cldy none 01:00 27 14 20 358 (N) 405 mstly clr none 02:00 24 10 12 6 (N) 405 mstly clr none 03:00 24 8 16 14 (NNE) 405 mstly clr none 04:00 24 8 18 351 (N) 405 ptly cldy none 05:00 22 4 16 4 (N) 405 ptly cldy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
