INAF queue observing, 2022 Dec 16 - Dec 17

Observer: Jenny Power
Telescope Operator: David Gonzalez Huerta
Astronomers from Italy: Andrea Rossi and Ester Marini
Instrument: MODS

Summary

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic situation these observations have been performed by LBTO personnel
through the indications of LBT Italian observers connected from Italy.

Dense passing cirrus at sunset. After several IT technical issues, we start with MODS at ~3UT and with clear sky.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 01:20 - 13:20 UT = * 12h* * 00m*
half night Observing time: 8h 30min (70.8%)*
Weather time loss: 0h 0min (0%)*
Technical time loss: 3h 30min (29.2%)*
