Log
1. Worked through the startup procedure.
2. Had trouble with opening the mirror doors (specifically the north). The South was the only one that was operating correctly.
3. Took flats through NINA, not bright enough to take U, so skipped that.
4. Set object position, and focused finder scope.
5. Slewed to NGC 970.
6. Slewed to GD 2.
7. Took Magnitude data on GD 2. 8. Slewed to the Crab Nebula aka M1.
9. Slewed to Jupiter at 2100 to observe the Red Spot.
10. Slewed to M82 aka Cigar Galaxy, took magnitude frames.
11.
