              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Sutherland,C.Gray
Mirror covers needed to be reset before test slews as they would not open.
Clouds moved in around the time we switched to Kosmos. Not enough to close, but enough to be annoying.
CU04 donated about 10 minutes of time to UW03 so they could finish cals.
Had to restart kosmos with hubs start nubs due to a stopped exposure.
Closed the dome at 6am so cals could be done.
It was a good and uneventful night!
