Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
This is a new set of MXU masks (six) for the GOODS spectroscopic survey,
specifically devoted to SPITZER/MIPS sources.
There are 36.0 hrs of observations (incl.overheads). Each mask is exposed for ~6hrs
(6 OBs). Offsets are specified to have a 3 point dithering pattern, with ~1 pixel
shift between OBs. Most of the objects are very faint, so almost all of them will
not be visible even in the through-slit exposure. To deal with this, 4 to 6 stars
have been put in narrow slits, for each mask, which have been marked with green
circles in the associated finding charts. These stars should be visible in the slits
in the 0 offset position.

Is this a Pre-imaging run ?
Pre-imaging Requirements
Source(s) of Pre-imaging
Pre-imaging sources not listed above
Do all your OBs comply with the instrument-specific requirements listed
on the instrument-specific Phase 2 web page ?
If this is a pre-imaging run, did you select PRE-IMAGING for the Observing
Category for each Observing Template ?
Do all your finding charts comply with both the general and instrument-specific
Phase 2 Web Pages ?
If you submitted OBs for standard stars, did you specify the magnitude
and spectral type of all standard stars in the OBs ?
Have you included OBs for any calibrations that you need but which are
not part of the Calibration Plan ?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first, did you make
use of the User Priority field in the OBs ?
If this is a run that requires coordinated observations with other facilities,
did you give proper instructions in the Time-Critical Aspects Section ?
If you have prepared your finding charts with tools other than FIMS,
do they comply with the specifications on the FORS2 Phase 2 web page ?
