Major Instrument Modes: ISAAC SW imaging

RA Range: 13-14

Constraint set (Typical seeing, Transparency,Airmass, FLI, Moon distance): 0.8 2CLR 2.0 0.5 60


Pre-imaging run? No! Chilean run? No! Special calibrations? No!
Time critical? No! ToO? No! Carry-over run? No!


Special Remarks:


 
 
  Service part of a multimode large program observing slowly moving
targets (TNOs). Only imaging observations included in the service part.
Target coordinates in each OB are approximate, and need to be updated at
observation time by consulting the user-provided ephemerides. Some dates
are unsuitable and excluded from the ephemerides. 

  Please note that moon constraint (FLI=0.5) for targets submitted for 
P68 is somewhat more strict than in the P67 OBs.

  Observing strategy summarized by the PI as follows:

  (0)  select target OB from queue
  (1)  in ephemeris select date and time closest in time to expected
       start time of OB; if not found, do not observe the target during
       that night
  (2)  if found, select corresponding RA&DEC
  (3)  in OB enter RA&DEC from (2), position/rotator angle = 0
  (4)  execute science OB of target; do not interrupt OB execution
  (5)  check field through DSS image, blink images to identify
       object (if wanted)

  OBs have execution times much longer than 1 hour. Waiver submitted and
approved in period 67.

  Calibration plan is all right for this program.
