But, alas, all good things must come to an end. While the comet hunters of JH03 made out like bandits, CU06 was stuck with high humidity for their entire run. We never had to close, but it was very close. No problems tonight. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 19:18 APOLLO 425( 2215) 30 43 20.3 23.1 23.1 23.4 22.4 530 1.30 20:33 arctic 522( 1435) -98 39 19.5 20.5 21.1 20.1 20.1 sdss-r 1.26 00:23 dcamera 414( 886) -46 54 13.9 15.1 16.2 15.2 14.5 -- 3.27 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 73 32 3 233 (SW) 418 mstly clr none 17:00 77 34 10 205 (SSW) 648 mstly clr none 18:00 76 32 13 266 (W) 615 mstly clr none 19:00 74 30 6 259 (W) 592 clear none 20:00 70 26 7 262 (W) 586 clear none 21:00 68 25 8 252 (WSW) 547 clear none 22:00 66 32 4 164 (SSE) 704 clear none 23:00 61 48 13 90 (E) 1097 clear none 00:00 61 48 10 90 (E) 991 clear none 01:00 58 51 24 77 (ENE) 1176 clear humid 02:00 56 52 19 78 (ENE) clear humid 03:00 55 51 8 113 (ESE) clear humid 04:00 54 51 12 91 (E) clear humid 05:00 54 49 9 89 (E) clear humid Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
