Clouds got too thick around 21:10. We re-opened at 22:50 Clouds came back in around 04:00 and I decided we should close at 04:34. We never re-opened with radar returns nearby. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:18 APOLLO 800( 1531) -31 74 6.2 7.5 7.7 7.5 6.4 -- 1.20 19:01 dcamera 710( 666) -158 68 5.5 6.0 6.5 5.8 5.4 -- 1.20 22:56 dcamera 526( 324) 143 77 1.5 3.0 3.8 2.9 1.9 -- 1.50 00:29 GIFS 526( 397) -25 63 0.8 1.3 1.8 1.0 0.6 6766 2.50 00:30 NA2gdr -2364(27635) -26 63 0.8 1.3 1.8 1.0 0.6 clear 2.20 03:00 dcamera 608( 288) -54 67 1.1 0.6 1.1 0.5 0.8 -- 1.40 03:03 NA2gdr 2771(24771) -55 66 0.9 0.6 1.0 0.5 0.8 clear 1.00 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 48 18 20 242 (WSW) 524 ptly cldy none 17:00 49 18 22 214 (SW) 524 ptly cldy none 18:00 44 13 22 259 (W) 524 ptly cldy none 19:00 42 13 16 253 (WSW) 524 ptly cldy none 20:00 40 17 15 284 (WNW) 524 ptly cldy none 21:00 39 20 6 330 (NNW) 524 cloudy none 22:00 38 21 1 306 (NW) 524 mstly cldy none 23:00 35 25 16 15 (NNE) 524 mstly clr none 00:00 34 24 8 346 (NNW) 524 mstly clr none 01:00 34 21 10 44 (NE) 524 mstly clr none 02:00 33 22 12 40 (NE) 524 mstly clr none 03:00 34 19 4 268 (W) 524 mstly clr none 04:00 33 20 9 8 (N) 524 mstly cldy none 05:00 34 14 11 18 (NNE) 524 cloudy none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
