INAF queue observing, 2026 May 16 - May 17

Observers: Silvia Tosi, Ester Marini

ISA: Alex Becker

Telescope Operator: Josh Williams

Instruments: MODS1

Summary

At sunset the sky is clear. Humidity is at 25%, wind at 20-25 m/s, temperature 8°C and dropping. Particle counts above the limit. We open at 8:12UT, after the wind's speed decreased.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 03:12 - 11:17 = 7h 53m
Observing time: 6hr 43min (36.6%)
