We had a clear, dark night with excellent seeing and no issues! SU01's targets set by 04:53 and they donated the rest of their time. Before I could even finish sending the text asking if JH01 would like the time, Zafar was on and we enjoyed the skies until dawn! No problems tonight ------- FAILURE LOG ------- FAILURE MODE TIME PROG INSTR TI/SHU START FINISH DESCRIPTION ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------- FOCUS LOG --------------- Time Instrument Focus Az El Temp Strc Prim Sec Air filt FWHM -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 18:59 ecamera 462( 44) 5 83 12.2 15.8 15.5 15.3 13.1 ND1 0.96 22:25 ecamera 455( -106) -115 50 12.8 12.3 12.9 12.3 13.0 Clear 0.97 01:06 arctic 471( 1008) -31 36 12.9 12.1 12.7 12.0 12.6 Wash-C 1.30 05:04 arctic 384( 730) 202 47 8.4 8.2 8.8 7.8 7.9 sdss-r 0.92 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 58 22 10 29 (NNE) 1583 clear none 17:00 59 20 6 348 (NNW) 989 clear none 18:00 57 23 4 263 (W) 1249 clear none 19:00 54 19 6 357 (N) 1286 clear none 20:00 53 20 7 319 (NW) 2893 clear none 21:00 53 22 8 314 (NW) 2818 clear none 22:00 54 22 9 282 (WNW) 2347 clear none 23:00 56 19 6 266 (W) 2084 clear none 00:00 54 20 5 264 (W) 1964 clear none 01:00 54 20 6 245 (WSW) 2603 clear none 02:00 54 20 2 204 (SSW) 1896 clear none 03:00 52 22 3 212 (SSW) 1488 clear none 04:00 48 24 2 336 (NNW) 1641 clear none 05:00 48 25 4 257 (WSW) 2182 clear none 06:00 47 24 3 242 (WSW) 2450 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
