INAF queue observing, 2025 June 27 - June 28

Observer: Andrea Rossi, Ester Marini.
Support: Justin Rupert
Telescope Operator: Steve Allanson
Instrument: SHARK-NIR/MODS

Summary

These observations have been performed in C-19 mode by Andrea Rossi and Ester Marini.
At sunset there are some cirrus, we open. We tried starting with SHARK, but we had to stop because of a technical problem with the telescope drives. Steve and the team at the summit need some day-time to fix that, they cannot solve it tonight. He calls the night at 6:35UT.

INAF queue observing, 2025 June 29 - June 30

Observer: Ester Marini, Felice Cusano
Support: Justin Rupert
Telescope Operator: Steve Allanson
Instrument: PEPSI

Summary

These observations have been performed in C-19 mode by Ester Marini and Felice Cusano.
. Tests to solve the technical issue are still going on at sunset. The work extends into night time until 5:31UT, when every issues is solved except for one related to LUCI that prevents from using the instrument tonight. Then, we stay closed due to clouds until 07:20. We open and use PEPSI. Closed again at 8:21 for high particle counts. Opening again at 8:41.

INAF queue observing, 2025 July 01 - July 02

Observer: Felice Cusano, Ester Marini
Support: Justin Rupert
Telescope Operator: David Gonzales Huerta (remotely from Tucson)
Instrument: SHARK-NIR/PEPSI

Summary

These observations have been performed in C-19 mode by Felice Cusano and Ester Marini.
. At sunset the sky is clear, we open at 02:47UT with SHARK-NIR. The very poor seeing prevents us to acquire any science data. We switch to PEPSI at 04:06UT, but we close at 04:28UT due to clouds and rain/thunders all around the mountain. We re-open at 09:32UT but we close again due to fog and heavy clouds close to the mountain at 9:54UT and stay closed until the end of the night.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 3:35 - 11:05 UT = * 7h* * 30m*
Observing time: 0h 0min (0%)*
Weather time loss: 7h 30min (100%)*
Technical time loss: 0h 0min (0%)*
