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

A blanket of cirrus was with us the entire night, but this was made up for by excellent seeing. We observed two P0's and a DDT in its last visibility window of the semester, as well as other high priority blocks. The cloud thickened in the early hours, forcing us to observe lower priority targets.

Science data taken for:
2021-2-LSP-001 P0 RSS (Followup of Transients)
2024-1-COM-002 P0 RSS (This is a commissioning proposal)
2024-1-MLT-004 P0 RSS (Observations of white dwarf supernovae to be observed also with JWST.)

2024-1-SCI-033 P3 HRS (detached eclipsing binaries for PLATO mission)
2023-2-LSP-001 P3 RSS (Spectra of ultrashort period main sequence binary stars)
