Beautiful clear skies at sunset, cloudy shortly after for about 1 hour and then beautiful, good seeing, dark skies Unfortunately a power cut at ~4am caused some technical problems and we were unable to continue.

Took some telescope throughput measurements, some commissioning observations and science data for:
