Opened at 23:19. Finished pick-up science program after it was interrupted by wind. Closed at 01:04 due to winds. Gave up at 05:00 when the winds showed no sign of slowing. Left the telescope parked where it was, as it was too risky to slew in the gusts. Completed pickup science. Created instrument block for gcam. See runaway report. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:45 dcamera 286( 411) 78 76 8.4 9.3 9.2 9.3 8.1 -- 1.24 00:24 dcamera 269( 380) 254 31 8.6 8.1 8.4 8.3 8.1 -- 2.06 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 47 12 22 21 (NNE) 196 clear none 17:00 47 10 16 28 (NNE) 225 clear none 18:00 47 10 21 13 (NNE) 231 clear none 19:00 48 10 25 23 (NNE) 251 clear none 20:00 49 8 37 18 (NNE) 237 clear none 21:00 49 8 35 17 (NNE) 189 clear none 22:00 47 8 14 7 (N) 169 clear none 23:00 46 10 28 22 (NNE) 185 clear none 00:00 48 9 11 55 (NE) 203 clear none 01:00 47 11 21 65 (ENE) 285 clear none 02:00 41 18 39 78 (ENE) 491 clear none 03:00 37 23 42 70 (ENE) 1713 clear none 04:00 36 24 22 69 (ENE) 1689 clear none 05:00 35 23 46 70 (ENE) 1093 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
