What exactly do you do that you need to close for weather?

I'm a telescope operator on a 2.5 meter telescope. Our telescope isn't in a dome, it has a roll off enclosure, so its totally vulnerable if weather rolls in. We had this storm system just northeast of us all night and it finally got to us. The humidity spiked up very fast and the dewpoint depression got below our limit of 3degC. It was at 2.2degC and I was still waiting for the last exposure to finish so we could close and not lose that data. Luckily we closed just in time, then it dropped down to 1degC. When the humidity gets that high and the dewpoint depression below 3degC, we can get condensation on our mirror and thats not good at all, especially since they JUST cleaned the mirror about 3 weeks ago and it has to last until next July.

He runs a huge telescope thingy down there in NM...one of those big dome fuckers.

Yes, this. Why didn't I just say this?

...and seriously, I meant that you'd be spending time with your wife when you got home....no offense meant.

LOL. We joke a lot in here, but no one ever means what they say. Its a very friendly community because everyone on here owns guns.

Damn...sorry you couldn't hear that.

For our Bagdad brethren that call CO home... the sun is just beginning to bring light on the horizon, there is a 1/16-1/8th crescent moon at about 10:00 high, the temp is probably 58 or so, and the high is probably going be 90 with partly cloudy skies.

Im sitting here waiting for the next vehicle to search and I hear on the radio "Guard, did I just watch you watch the IA open a suspicious package?"
