ENR CTIO Blanco 4-m 2019-06-29

Date: 
Saturday, June 29, 2019
Telescope: 
CTIO Blanco 4-m
Submitter: 
Matthew Penny
Submitter Email:

Observer Support: 
Clara Martinez-Vazquez
Night Assistant: 
Alberto Alvarez
Also Present: 
Rodrigo Hernandez
Problems: 

Lost first ~hour of the night due to water in the dome. Fixed efficiently with progress updates by day and night assistants.

We observed our field to too high a hour angle (5:10) and telescope needed a pointing reset - Alberto got us back observing efficiently.

Comments: 

Observers: Thomas Beatty, Matthew Penny

First night of the MISHAPS survey.

Began night with standard fields. Seeing was mediocre, so we ran time-series observations all night - will wait for better seeing to gather deep 6-color data for the field.

~1 hour at end of night was used to gather an extra epoch of observations for program 2019A-0065 - a reverberation mapping campaign.
