MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2019 Jan 28 Observer(s): Elisabeth Newton (Stephanie Douglas remote) Institution(s): Dartmouth College Instrument: Modspec No Observing (see comments below) Bad weather most of the night. Problems were encountered, see the separate trouble report for details. Seeing and Weather: Clouds all night. Observing Summary: Night started off passably clear, but by the time this new observer succeeded in getting on target WIYN had closed the dome due to pervasive clouds. Cleared up around 2:30am, got on target but couldn't focus guider (see trouble report). Donut was too big to guide. Succeeded in hand-guiding and getting my first MDM spectrum! Then WIYN closed again and I called it a night. ------------------------------ Submitted on 2019 Jan 29 [3:54:02]
