INAF queue observing, 2026 Mar 06 - Mar 07

Observer: Ezequiel J. Marchesini, Andrea Rossi, Roberta Carini
Support: Jennifer Power
Telescope Operator: Steve Allanson
AO Support: Doug Miller
Instrument: LBC, PEPSI, LUCI

Summary

At sunset temperature is -5.2°C, wind is 8 m/s, humidity is at 38%. Sky is clear.
We got cirrus during all night, seeing very variable between 0.7 < s < 2; wind stable at ~10 m/s.
After 6:30 UT we had a primary issue which forces to stay above 60deg elevation for the rest of the night, and thus we had to switch to LUCI targets.
We switched to PEPSI at 10:30 UT.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 02:30 - 12:30 UT = 10h
Observing time: 9hr 10min (92%)
Weather time loss: 0h 0min (0%)
Technical time loss: 0h 50 mins (8%)*
Shark-VIS+NIR time loss: 0h 00min (0%)
