MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2012 Jan 14 Observer(s): John Thorstensen Institution(s): Dartmouth Instrument: Nellie Direct Worked for 2 hours (off and on through the night) Conditions were Mixed most of the night. No equipment or software problems were encountered. Seeing and Weather: Clouds all night. Beg: Overcast, Winds Light & Variable Mid: Seeing 1.4 arcsec, Patchy Clouds, Winds Light & Variable End: Overcast, Winds Light & Variable Observing Summary: Cloudy almost all night, but with two usable intervals in the middle. Managed to get parallax observations of four targets -- but since it was the middle of the night, parallax factors were fairly modest. This was already better than one would have expected at sunset, though. ------------------------------ Submitted on 2012 Jan 16 [5:36:22]
