SA: Alexei SO: Veronica Others: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Summary ------------------------------------------------------------------------ => In the early hours of the night, the telescope was shut down due to high humidity. The humidity then dropped and we began our observations. Most of the observation blocks we observed were high priority and required dark sky conditions for the observations. Science data taken for: 2026-1-SCI-025 P1 RSS (We are probing the large scale outflows in bright quasars through absorption spectroscopy.) 2025-2-MLT-001 P1 RSS (x3) (Toward a complete census of void galaxy properties in the Local Volume) 2026-1-SCI-008 P1 RSS (Determining mass of 2 Brown Dwarfs orbiting WD stars using Radial Velocities) 2026-1-MLT-007 P2 RSS (Spectroscopic study of BLAP candidates) 2026-1-SCI-009 P2 RSS (Extreme variability in the BLR of the AGN HE2129-3356) 2026-1-MLT-006 P2 RSS (Search for new Galactic symbiotic stars) 2025-2-MLT-002 P3 RSS (Study of ionized gas in star-forming dwarf ring galaxies) ------------------------------------------------------------------------
