sdssJ133918+244619
ALId180156 - ALId180164, ALId180165 - ALId180173, ALId180181 - ALId180189, ALId180148 - ALId180150, ALId180151 - ALId180155 clear skies, the seeing was around 1.0 and 1.2" We aborted (ctrl+c)a couple of times due to connection issues. The files from ALId180148 to ALId180155 are not usable. For sdssJ133918+244619, despite the target being positioned clearly on the slit, the quickspec looked strange. We are setting the status as completed but let us know if the data is usable. Observed

 

The above information is collected from the ToO/Mon reports that have been created by the observer.

Should any of the observations have been carried out using the OB system, you will find additional information HERE
