              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: A.Shugart
Delayed opening because of the large number of cals required for the NM07
program. Since it was Jupiter observations, we were able to remain open
and push through the clouds, but we closed at the end of the program,
knowing that SPICAM could not cope as well. The clouds, dust, and humidity
got worse over the rest of the night, and showed no signs of improvement
at 05:00. Ran some in-dome tests of sec mirror errors. See separate email.
No other problems. I did not remember to record seeing, but it was 1.13"
with dcam at the beginning of the night.
