Problems: 

Before observations started CHIRON GUI was not taking the parameters from the observing script website, I restarted it and it worked afterwards.

Afternoon calibrations look like zeroes. 

5:30UT Chiron GUI became unresponsive, so I had to restart it again.

7:07UT Chiron observer script went down for a couple of minutes. Observations 26 and 27 manually. Afterwards I got the pop up for each observation with the message: “There was an error attempting to send your object information to the CLI….”
