INAF queue observing, 2026 Mar 15 - Mar 16

Observers: Ezequiel J. Marchesini, Felice Cusano

ISA: Justin Rupert

Telescope Operator: Josh Williams
Instrument: LBC, LUCI

Summary

At sunset the sky presents some cirrus. Temperature is 6°C, humidity is at 20%, wind is at ~6 m/s. The night was characterized by variable seeing and thin cirrus clouds. We started observations with LBC, then switched to LUCI as a backup program. The night concluded with PEPSI observations under thick cloud cover.

Summary

At sunset the sky is clear, wind guts very low. We start with PEPSI. We observed the Comet C2024E1, then we switch to LBC.
At about 1.00 UT we switch to LUCI+AO given the execellent seeing conditions.

INAF queue observing, 2026 Mar 19 - Mar 20

Observers: Felice Cusano, Ester Marini
ISA: Justin Rupert
Telescope Operator: Gil Esquerdo
Instrument: SHARK, LBC, PEPSI

Summary

At sunset the sky is clear, wind guts very low. We start with SHARK, open time observation. Zcma observed only with SHARK VIS.
There are some cirrus in the sky when SHARK is done, so we decided to not use LBC, we switch to LUCI. Problem during the switch, so we used LBC for 2 hours and then moved to the high priority program of Bellazzini with PEPSI.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 02:48 - 12:08 UT = 9h 20m
Observing time: 8hr 20min (89.3%)
Weather time loss: 0h 0min (%)
Technical time loss: 1h 0mins (10.7%)*
Shark-VIS+NIR time loss: 0h 0min (0%)
