Summary
----------------------------------------------------------------------


- A very difficult first night at the telescope. Had several technical issues and unfavourable weather conditions. High wind speeds caused bad image quality since we could not properly align the mirror. Had a spike in humidity which closed us for a while. Seeing was variable.
- Attempted a number of proposals, but only ended up accepting the following observations:

2015-1-SCI-058 P1 SCAM (Studying the long-term behavior of classical novae after their eruptions)
2015-1-SCI-009 P2 HRS (Pulsations of the Extreme Helium Star BX Cir)
2015-1-SCI-005 P2 RSS (x2) (Time variability of emerging BAL QSOs.)
2015-1-SCI-017 P3 RSS (x2) (Observations of evolved massive stars revealed with Spitzer and WISE)
2015-1-SCI-062 P4 SCAM (Studying the long-term behavior of classical novae after their eruptions)
