- All night session (11.2 hrs) operated largely under automated control. - Ambient Temperature 2 degC (maximum) falling to -2 deg C by end of session. Majority of session around 0 to -1 degC. - CCD operation of -25 degC
(at 67% average cooling).- main objective of the session was to acquire images of key selected stars for ongoing photometric and astrometric analysis.
