No problems connecting. The desktop notes about how to reset the camera connection worked as advertised; had to reset at the start, and then once mid-way after an accidental double click sent an Abort. Image quality looked decent.

No problems to report
White dwarf time series photometry. Everything appears to be in good working order except web browsers are unable to reach any site, including internal CTIO pages. Are computer clocks able to sync with time servers? This is important to our observations.

Hoped to observe active galaxies. Did not open dome, due to cloudy skies. The clouds are predicted to continue through tomorrow night.
