MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2006 May 03

Observer(s): Jules Halpern
Institution(s): Columbia University

Instrument: Templeton Direct

Worked for 9 hours (all night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Clear, Winds High
   End: Clear, Winds Moderate

Observing Summary:

Continued monitoring various astronomical explosions.
A few problems were encountered, as described in the
accompanying trouble report. But I was able to complete
the desired observations.  I was also lucky in that
my targets were in the north and were not affected
by strong wind from the south.

I will save some interesting observations about the telescope
for another night.  Tonight's report already has too many.
