Observing Summary:

The whole night is overcast. Only did some indoor instrumental calibrations from 16:00pm to 23:50pm.

However, it occurred to me that the writing error happened last night may be due to the too-frequent exposure:
I need to make several Ne+Hg lamp spectra, therefore I called  go 3   in Prospero with an exposure time of 1 second.
However, when the second exposure has finished, the first one is still in the progress writing from buffer to disk, which
results confliction.

The dome was closed at 04:00am, according to KPNO's suggestion of threatening clouds.
