These observations have been performed by Alex Becker with the support of LBT-Italia-obs remotely.

At sunset the sky is covered by clouds and humidity is 99%. TMS is not available. LUCI1 is not available for all the run due to technical problem. We stayed closed.

INAF queue observing, 2023 November 22 - November 23

Observer: Felice Cusano, Ester Marini
Support: Andrew Cardwell
Telescope operator : Ricardo Ansaldi
Instrument: LUCI 2

Summary

These observations have been performed by Alex Becker with the support of LBT-Italia-obs remotely.

At sunset the sky is clear and weather conditions are good we can open. We use LUCI2 up to 05:30 then we give the telescope to SHARK.
We switch again to LUCi after 4 hours. Several problems during the night for collimation and pointing. TMS is not available. LUCI1 is not available for all the run due to technical problem.

Night duration (12 degree - twilight) 01:30 - 12:40 UT = * 11h* * 10m*
Observing time: 6h 10min (55%)*
Weather time loss: h min (%)*
