Problems:

Proposal 2014B-0071 does not exist in the SISPI database, and it needs to. I'll contact Chris S. concerning its omission.

Comments:

None.Overall, a very successful night, albeit with poor, variable seeing for the first half of the night.

Observations of several programs were accomplished:

(a) N2014B-0378: see elog #227345

Science images DECam_00345723 --> 810

(b) observations taken of the purported position of the International Sun-Earth Explorer 3.

PropID: 2014A-0634

Images are DECam_00345814 --> 844

and

DECam_00345859 --> 868

see elogs #227438 and #227487

Images are DECam_00345872 --> 896

see elog #227498

(d) Deep z-filter observations acquired for a stellar stream project of whch I'm part of, with Chilean collaborators, proposalID 2014B-0610

Science images are DECam_00345914 --> 924

see elog #117545

(e) Two visits were made to three Kuiper Belt Objects fields for David Gerdes'

project, under propID: 2013A-9999.

For the three fields,

Field1 images are:

DECam_00345933 --> 345937 and

DECam_00345997 --> 3446001

Field 2 images are:

DECam_00345938 --> 345942 and

DECam_00346002 --> 346006

Field 3 images are:

DECam_00345943 --> 345947 and

DECam_00346007 --> 346011

see log #227566

(f) Observations of a ToO Near-Earth Object, N006vz6, for the NEOwise team.

Their proposal ID of 2014B-0071 does not exist in the SISPI database, and so

I placed their data under my 2014A-0634 one. I'll alert the Tucson folks to this problem.

Science images are:

DECam_00345957 --> 345986

see elog #227584

(g) Finally, I observed deep z-filter images for a compact Hickson Group for

an Australian collaborator of mine, under propID: 2014B-0614

Science images are:

DECam_00345988 --> 345996

(h) Several standard star fields were observed under propID: 2014A-0634

see elogs # 227329, 227335, 227472, 227479, 227527, 227535 and 227558

Overall, an excellent, excellent night !
