MDM Observatory 2.4m Telescope Observing Report for 2023 Jun 21

Observer(s): John Thorstensen
Institution(s): Dartmouth

Instrument: OSMOS

Worked for 7.5 hours (most of the night)
Conditions were Non-Photometric most of the night.
No equipment or software problems were encountered.

Seeing and Weather:
   Beg: Seeing 1.5 arcsec, Patchy Clouds, Winds Moderate
   Mid: Seeing 1.2 arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable, mostly clear
   End: Seeing 1. arcsec, Cirrus, Winds Light & Variable

Observing Summary:

The dome was stuck at 167 degrees azimuth, as reported earlier,
so I observed non-northern targets as they transited through the
dome slit.  This was limiting, but the telescope and instrument 
worked well.  Cloudy at sunset, clearing rapidly; some intervals
of high cloud during the night, but mostly quite good with good
seeing, too.

A shoutout to Tony and Eric, who seem to have fixed the dome for
the coming night, and also to Rick Pogge, who -- now that we 
have fiber -- was able to update this web form to include 2023 as
a choice of year!
