Comments: 

The first half of this night was used as an engineering run for the telescope. This was ~4 hours of the night. The second half of the night was used for my science program using tripplespec 4 to observe sources in the Galactic Center. The observations ran fairly smooth with only minor issues. There was a minor software bug in the program controling tripplespec 4; however, restarting the program seemed to fix the issues.
