Things cleared up enough to open at 21:15 and the seeing wasn't half bad. I closed for an hour in B half when clouds and radar started approaching but all ended up being fine and we were able to continue observing (through clouds and such) the remainder of the night. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 22:14 ecamera 172( -195) 206 72 16.2 16.8 16.6 16.6 15.8 Clear 0.92 23:08 ecamera 294( -121) 225 67 14.7 15.7 15.8 15.4 14.9 Clear 1.18 00:07 ecamera 317( -131) 26 52 14.6 14.8 15.2 14.6 14.5 Clear 1.43 04:20 APOLLO 400( 1653) 70 56 14.0 13.8 14.2 13.9 14.0 530 1.60 Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
