MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2017 Nov 05

Observer(s): Douglas, Nunez
Institution(s): Columbia

Instrument: OSMOS

Worked for 10 hours (all night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details.

Seeing and Weather:
   Clouds from 0800 until 1300.
   Beg: Clear, Winds Calm
   Mid: Cirrus, Winds Calm
   End: Patchy Clouds, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

The night started off mostly clear with occasional cirrus, and we 
got a lot of good data. Around 2-3am more cirrus started rolling 
in. It steadily increased and by 4 we ran out of bright targets 
we could observe through the clouds. Otherwise it was a productive 
night. 

We again hit the issue where the TCS doesn't seem to know how to 
cross between RA=00 and RA=23 (in either direction), and had to 
restart the IC in Prospero a couple of times.
