General Description

This is a pre-imaging run for the 076.B-0702(B) run, where we planto obtain
 near infrared spectra of the Calcium triplet of red giant branch stars in the Fornax
 dwarf galaxy. This observing run was added to the program afer Mario von den Ancker
 discovered that we mixed science observations and pre-imaging observations into
 one run. 

This run description was prepared by Daniel Harbeck (dharbeck@noao.edu) since A.
 Kayser. Please cc furhter inqueries also to Daniel Harbeck, as andrea Kayser might
 have limited access to email during the week of this Phase II resubmission.

Please feel free to lower the contraint set if the current constaints appear to
 tight for a pre-imaging run.
