MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2021 Sep 28

Observer(s): Rupert
Institution(s): MDM

Instrument: OSMOS/B

Worked for 12 hours (all night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing .8 arcsec, Smoke, Winds Calm
   Mid: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Smoke, Winds Calm
   End: Seeing 1.3 arcsec, Smoke, Winds Calm

Observing Summary:

According to NOAA there was a large plume of smoke that covered
western AZ. It's possible a thin layer of that crept our way,
though I couldn't really tell. It was a hazy night regardless
but the seeing at the beginning was very good.

Had to tighten up the cam on the RA drive again tonight to stop
the telescope from dragging the guide star off target.

It was nice to actually get a full night of observing in!
