INAF queue observing, 2024 February 13 - February 14

Observer: Felice Cusano, Adriana Gargiulo, Simona Paiano
Support: Justin Rupert
Telescope operator : Josh Williams
Instrument: LBC, MODS

Summary

These observations have been performed in part in remote from Bologna by Felice Cusano and Adriana Gargiulo and in part by Justin Rupert with the support of LBT-Italia-obs remotely.

At sunset the sky is clear. At the beginning the SHARK-VIS starts observations, they operated until 04.00UT.
Then we switch to LBC, but we were not able to collimate and we used MODS up to the end of the night.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 02:00 - 13:00 UT = * 11h* * 00m*
Observing time: 6 h 50 min (62%)*
Weather time loss: 0 h 00 min (0%)*
Technical time loss: 2 h 10 min (20%)*
Shark-VIS time loss: 2 h 00 min (18%)*

Instrument: MODS, PEPSI

Summary

These observations have been performed in part by Justin Rupert with the support of LBT-Italia-obs remotely and in part in remote from Bologna by Felice Cusano and Adriana Gargiulo.

At sunset the sky is clear. We opened at 1:10UT. At the beginning the SHARK-VIS team starts observations, they operated until 03.00UT, they stop earlier for bad seeing.
We start with MODS and observe two targets for Biazzo, but for high seeing (>2") we switch to PEPSI at 05:54.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 02:00 - 13:00 UT = * 11h* * 00m*
Observing time: 9h 43min (79.3%)*
Weather time loss: 0 h 00 min (%)*

Summary

These observations have been performed in part by Andrew Cardwell with the support of LBT-Italia-obs remotely. At sunset the sky is clear. SHARK-NIR starts the night, but seeing was bad so we start earlier than planned with LUCI, at 6:40 UT. We then switched to MODS at 10:43 UT.
