MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observing Report for 2014 Apr 15

Observer(s): Poleski & Adams
Institution(s): OSU

Instrument: spectrograph

Worked for 9 hours (all night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Clear, Winds Moderate
   Mid: Seeing 1.3 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Calm
   End: Seeing 1.4 arcsec, Clear, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

Generally good conditions, though there were some patchy cirrus clouds towards the South which at one point extended up to 70 degrees above the horizon.  We had to drop one target because the telescope was jiggling ~ few arc-seconds along the North/South axis.  This occurred with the telescope pointed into 15 mph wind.  Other than that things went smoothly.
