| - | - Moved to SA20 |
| | - Moved to PG2213 |
| | - Moved to 110 field -- failed. Too low? DFM TCS reported target out of range ... but it sat at +24 altitude |
| | - OH WELL |
| | - Hatch door piston fell off |
| | - That sounds bad, but the piston unscrewed itself and wouldn't hold the hatch up |
| | - Olivia and Roy fixed it :) |
| | - Pointed main scope at dome flat fielder (see image) for flats |
| | - Slewed to Zenith with DFM TCS |
| | - Removed from filter wheel and placed in box, turned out all lights and took darks and biases |
| | - We had trouble getting reasonable signal in U using dome flat fielder. |
| | - Took only one U flat |
| | - Did not take U dark, will scale 15s dark |
| | - Stowed 432 and filter wheel in 433C |
| | - Normal shutdown procedure |
