INAF queue observing, 2017 Nov 23-24

Observer: F. Cusano, A. Gargiulo
Telescope Operator: S. Allanson
Support Astronomer: B. Rothberg
Instrument: MODS, LBC

Summary

At the sunset the sky is clear.
We start with MODS. At 06 UT we change to LBC

Night duration (12\xB0 el twilight) 1:30am- 12:40pm UT = 11 h 10m

Observing time: * *10h 40min*(95%)

Weather time loss: * *h (%)
