Clouds and rain did not permit us to open until the start of B-half. Even then, we were fighting clouds, but NM03 managed to get some data. The clouds cleared up after 04:00. ------- 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 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- 00:44 ecamera -42( -229) 129 66 17.2 18.4 20.5 18.3 17.5 ND4 1.38 01:11 ecamera 97( -113) 148 76 17.3 18.0 19.4 17.8 17.4 Clear 1.40 03:24 ecamera 374( 137) 216 74 18.1 17.4 18.0 17.5 17.8 ND3 1.15 ------------- WEATHER LOG ---------------- Wind Precip.or Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust Sky Conditions ------------------------------------------------------------------ 16:00 72 47 20 180 (S) 1385 cloudy lt rain 17:00 71 47 19 134 (SE) 1196 ptly cldy none 18:00 73 43 6 203 (SSW) 1123 mstly cldy none 19:00 71 44 9 213 (SSW) 1175 cloudy lt rain 20:00 62 50 11 92 (E) 2456 cloudy none 21:00 64 49 9 80 (E) 1978 cloudy none 22:00 64 48 16 133 (SE) 1963 mstly cldy none 23:00 63 48 18 154 (SSE) 1065 ptly cldy none 00:00 64 47 16 168 (SSE) 1351 ptly cldy none 01:00 63 47 10 187 (S) 1492 ptly cldy none 02:00 62 48 20 163 (SSE) 1549 mstly cldy none 03:00 65 46 19 188 (S) 1163 cloudy none 04:00 64 46 13 196 (SSW) 1302 mstly clr none 05:00 62 47 14 208 (SSW) 1646 clear none Note: the wind was coming from the azimuth listed.
