MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2017 Jun 05 Observer(s): Simonian Institution(s): OSU Instrument: ModSpec/Echelle Worked for 3 hours (last half of the night) Conditions were Overcast most of the night. No equipment or software problems were encountered. Seeing and Weather: Clouds all night. Beg: Cirrus, Winds Calm Mid: Cirrus, Winds Calm End: Cirrus, Winds Calm Observing Summary: There were cirrus clouds all night so I remained closed. After around midnight, out of curiosity, I opened the dome to see how difficult data collection would be. It turned out that acquisition and guiding were possible, albeit noticeably degraded. I observed the list of science targets once and then closed. It's unclear how useful the spectra obtained tonight will be. ------------------------------ Submitted on 2017 Jun 6 [3:35:24]
