              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
The night started out with some light clouds which eventually left. Seeing was much better tonight!! The only issue we had was when the ARCTIC filter wheel needed to be homed while upside down. The filters had become lost and it took some time to get the instrument right-side up and then back on field.
