(If both were cloudy, repeat May 13.)*** In afternoon or during dinner: - Install 26/I grating setup - obtain at least 10 Zero frames - obtain at least 5, preferably 10, flat-field frames (projector or dome) Get well-exposed twilight spectrum at zenith at beginning (or end) of night. Try for 5000-30000 counts/pixel. Observe at beginning of night if it is still bright twilight (otherwise if it is already dark, start with V838 Mon and then come back and get mu CMa): Pgm Pri Target RA (J2000) Dec mag Exp Cmp Remarks STSI 03a-05 1 mu CMa 06 56 06.6 -14 02 36 5.0 3x8 2 RV std Main observing programs; observe as many of these as possible. Intermix programs as appropriate, and generally try to observe in order of RA. Get all of the Priority 1 if possible, and then Priority 2 if there is time. All of the targets in SUNY 03a-15 are galaxies; put the slit on the nucleus.

Charts for STSI 03a-03 are also at the telescope; note that most of the stars in this program have large proper motions, and the charts show the locations that they will have moved to in 2003. Targets for SUNY 03a-15 are galaxies; place slit on nucleus. Pri: Target priority. 1 = observe object if possible 2 = extra targets; observe only if no Priority 1 target is available 3 = backup targets; low priority RA & Dec: all coordinates are accurate to 1". Cmp: 1 means take comparison spectrum only before target exposures; 2 means before and after ..............................................................................
