Night Log 2026-07-17

SA: Nikki SO: Fred Others: Rudi for damage control, UCT Physics HoD + family ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Summary ------------------------------------------------------------------------ We had medium weather conditions all night, with oddly smooth but opague-ish cloud coverage. Though it was good enough to stay open, we tried to err on the safe side and opt for brighter targets. Otherwise the night was positively uneventful.
