He got on sky around the time twilight ended, so I did not count this as time lost or unused. As soon as the sun went down the humidity started to pick up. We pushed it a bit, but closed when things started feeling wet. It never came down, and clouds joined in for second half. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:43 dcamera 3( 44) 99 24 4.8 6.5 6.8 6.2 5.1 -- 1.78 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 45 31 7 256 (WSW) 983 clear none 17:00 43 32 13 219 (SW) 750 clear none 18:00 41 32 11 196 (SSW) 633 clear humid 19:00 41 32 14 195 (SSW) 836 clear humid 20:00 41 30 12 215 (SW) 614 clear humid 21:00 41 32 12 231 (SW) 763 clear humid 22:00 42 32 12 228 (SW) 432 clear humid 23:00 42 31 13 237 (WSW) 754 mstly cldy humid 00:00 41 32 13 217 (SW) 840 cloudy humid 01:00 41 32 15 222 (SW) 675 cloudy humid 02:00 40 32 15 227 (SW) 871 cloudy humid 03:00 39 32 17 221 (SW) 1092 cloudy humid 04:00 39 31 14 230 (SW) 1003 cloudy humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
