MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observer's Report for 2006 Sep 24

Observer(s): Bentz and Denney
Institution(s): OSU

Instrument: CCDS

Worked for 10 hours (all night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Clear, Winds Calm
   Mid: Cirrus, Winds Calm
   End: Cirrus, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

Things went well overall, although the seeing was not good, and
there seemed to be thin cirrus clouds hovering most of the night
We finished observing two grating settings of  PG1617+175, where
we got the first setting last night.  We then got all three setting
of PG2130+099 and the final setting on PG0052+251.  This last one
had really bad seeing and hardly any signal, so we took extra
exposures for longer times.  Plus we finished watching Season 2 of
Grey's Anatomy and were left with the cliffhanger season finale...
We'll just have to find a way to sleep...somehow...until we can see 
the conclusion from the first episode of season 3 tomorrow.
