MDM Observatory 1.3m Telescope Observing Report for 2017 Sep 01

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

Instrument: Templeton

Worked for 2 hours (part of the night)
Conditions were Mixed most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   High Humidity from 9pm until on.
   Beg: Seeing 2.2 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Patchy Clouds, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Patchy Clouds, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

I managed to get sky flats and a hour of
good data before clouds rolled up from the south.
Now the humidity is too high.
My only technical problem is that the guider
is out of focus (stars are little donuts) and I can't
move it one way or the other.  But it still
guides okay.
