1904 - dome set up done.
1917 - done with calibrations waiting for it to be dark enough.
2005 - Done with pointing, slewed to arcturus and vega and confirmed from Astrometry.net
2015 - The sharpcap in the NUC is getting frozen when the capture area is changed from to 1400×350
2025 - So in sharpcap settings the option “Use graphics card acceleration to improve performance” must be off. It caused the screen freeze
2030 - Adjusted the focus to 2576.7
2035 - Slewed to Beta Cep and started captures
2056 - Slewed to Phicas and started captures
2117 - Slewed to Alpha Lac and started captures
2138 - Slewed to Beta cep 1 4×4
2153 - Slewed to Beta cep 2 4×4
2214 - Slewed and captured Phicas
2232 - Slewed and captured Alpha Lac
2252 - Slewed and captured Beta cep 1 4×4
2309 - There are clouds. Waiting for them to go away. NOAA 26%
2323 - Phi Cas Slewed and started captures
0015 - Beta Cep Slewed and started captures
0032 - Beta Cep Slewed and started captures
0101 - Phi Cas Slewed and started captures
0121 - Alpha Lac Slewed and started captures
0156-alpha lac capture was completed
2015 - The sharpcap in the NUC is frozen, tried restarting but no change. In sharpcap settings the option “Use graphics card acceleration to improve performance” must be off. observing section was disturbed most of the time because of the cloud waited for an hour the cloud was blocking the way and target was visible for sometime and disappears in middle
