              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Sutherland,R.McMillan
Opened the dome at 17:49 since user was taking cals.
Had to restart ecam nubs.
Ran out of stuff to do for AP02, so that time is technically not used. Closed up the dome around 5:15.
Clear weather for the night, no issues :)
