Software/Control PC Issues
Observed an asteroid. At first, connector client wouldn't start on the camera computer. We took calibrations, focus images, and some preliminary data using the telescope computer. Peter Mack assisted and found an issue with the registry. Everything went smoothly after the issue was resolved. Good focus at 125973.

Clouds
Both Blanco and SOAR telescopes opened up at twilight, therefore I had hoped for clearing skies, but it stayed cloudy all night.

Clouds
Preparing to observe exoplanets in southern hemisphere to monitor this area. Always looking also for objects covered in my classes and for asteroids for light curves and rotation rates. Clouds were cirrus and unevenly distributed. Offered the night to others, but without luck.
