Problems:
Lost internet to the summit around 22:30. When the Zoom reconnected, Manuel magically appeared and was able to clear a break from the queue so that we lost only a single minute of science time and then guided us through how to reconnect to items that were still finicky.

WRC (second-half observer; willcerny@gmail.com): At one point in the night, .the queue would not accept some of the scheduled fields and raised several alerts on the SISPI queue and on the TCS. After some discussion with Rodrigo, we determined that it was possibly due to the coordinates of the fields we were trying to observe, although we were not certain. We lost ~12 minutes as we tried to troubleshoot and reconfigure, and we ultimately moved to different fields where we did not run into any issues.
