MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observer's Report for 2006 Mar 05

Observer(s): Peeples, Molly
Institution(s): Ohio State

Instrument: 8k

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

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds from set until 0100.
   Beg: Overcast, Winds Light & Variable
   Mid: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable
   End: Seeing 1.1 arcsec, Clear, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

Lots of clouds for the first six or so hours, but I observed NGC2403 and M81 anyway.
Once the clouds went away, I observed the Bootes field until twilight.

Probably lost an hour or two at the beginning of the night due to clouds; very overcast.

No problems tonight; the guider was figured out and nothing crashed... everything went smoothly.
