  1. Put 178MM on Finderscope, 482MC is in its box on shelf now
  2. Discussed In-Between desk plans
    1. Went to PHYS 226 to measure desks to steal >:)
  3. Tested instrument rotator and it WORKED
  4. Went to moon for pseudo-pointing
  5. Slewed to HD 40183 for full pointing
  6. Made Olivia do math (the problem… DUN DUN DUNNNNN)
  7. Did NOT Slew to PG 2213 (Out of range)
  8. Slewed to SA 20
    1. JFC
    2. We used SIMBAD to find a better star chart
    3. Saturated in the large star in R
  9. Jordan showed up!
  10. Slewed to NGC 2301
    1. Took tracking data with auto-guiding off at tracking rates 15.011, 15.026, 15.042
  11. Slewed to M42
