LBT OSU/RC Partner OBserving Notes Date: 2015 January 19 UTC (Night 2 of 9) Observers: Paul Martini, Suk Sien Tie (OSU), Jake Turner (UVa) Support Astronomer: Barry Rothberg Telescope Operator: David Gonzalez-Huerta SUMMARY: Fairly clear at start with some patchy clouds passing through, seeing about 1". Started with MODS and observed OSU_z6q 1_184784, OSU_MClusters N2B and M6C, and UM_Vshift 732. Uneventful switch to LBC around 0530. Seeing stayed around 0.9-1" and skies stayed mostly clear. Did many OSU_monitor targets: N3344, N2403, M81, N3077, N3627, N4258, N4449, N4736, N4605, N4826, N5474, N5194, M101, N6503 Skies completely clear at morning twilight, so took twilight flats.
