Observer Support:

Night Assistant: 
Alberto Alvarez
Problems: 

Data transfer error - pointing images at the beginning of the night were unable to be delivered. Restart of SISPI was unable to resolve the issue and dts was found to be offline. Alistair confirmed to continue observing despite the issue and said that later communication with Tuscon would be made to get dts working. DTS came back online at 00:40 UT and began delivering images. All exposures were transferred (as of 5:45am) except Exposures 590482-590507. These are all of the evening standards and the first science images.
