 =====Notes=====
+  - North Mirror Door Assembly was misbehaving (not closing when asked by DFM TCS)
+      - Onkar reported high-pitched noise from motor assembly when closing
+      - We were able to force all doors closed
+      - Then they opened and closed successfully, with North slightly slower
+      - Onkar will investigate tomorrow (Thurs)
+  - TS6 did not take the scope to zenith -- it was about $10^\circ$ off of zenith
+      - We were able to get DFM TCS to move the scope to zenith
+      - Telescope > Movement > Offset/Zenith > Set Zenith Position (hit Apply) > then "Start Slew"

 =====Data=====
+  - Darks stored in SharpCap Captures in gDrive: 2023-11-01 with "dark_#". Where #/10 is the integration time in s
+  - FLATS and Limiting Magnitude frames are in Projects > ASI432MM_bigpix > 20231102 along with all light frames
