              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Evening started with clear skies, but some high winds.  The backed off at sunset, allowing for good observations. NM04 had a good run. The rest of the night was clear with winds, but not high enough to pose a danger of closing.  All programs got their full runs in. Arcsat had a crash and several issues but worked through (most) of it with Jack's help.
