Connection Issues
Clear skies, but connection was lost due to VPN going out for both Radmin VPN and Cisco AnyConnect VPN. Currently I am still unable to connect to the observatory, and when I was last connected my observing program was still running. By now I am sure if the telescope continued with the last command, it has tracked into the observing limits, and the dome will still need to be closed.
