General Description
### 19 July 2006 revised ###
This is a standard long-slit spectroscopic run for very faint galaxies. Because
target objects are very faint, the target acquisition should be done by using relatively
bright (typically 16 mag < I < 19 mag) as shown in the finding charts. As
for spectrophotometric standard stars, early-type stars are preferred (for the telluric
correction) but not necessary.
Among 9 target objects, 4 objects have been completed (19 July 2006). The remaining
5 objects are TNJ0121+1320, MRC0316-257, USS0417-181, WNJ1123+3141, and USS2202+128.
By adopting PAs specified in the OBs, target objects should be at the upper direction
(TNJ0121+1320, USS2202+128, WNJ1123+3141) or at the lower direction (MRC0316-257,
USS0417-181) with respect to their reference stars. From this starting position,
4 exposures are taken for each OBs, with the offset (3, 3, 3) arcsec on the slit.
Please keep the targets on the CCD during the observations and avoid the drop-out
of the targets from the CCD.

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 ?
