Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
The program is about FORS spectroscopy and photometry of two galaxies
hosting GRBs, at z=0.422 and z=0.846.
** Target GRB 050803 at z=0.422 has emission lines. The I band magnitude of the
target is about 22. We request multi-band imaging and LSS spectroscopy.
** Target GRB 000210 at z=0.846 has also emission lines. The V band magnitude is
about 24.2. Here we only request LSS spectroscopy (the photometry is already available).
** Initially the program was plannning the observations of a third target. We have
restricted our program to 2 targets, as the third requires very good observing conditions.
So the "C" part of our program is empty.
** Our priority is to execute the multiband photometry of target GRB 050803 first.
Then its spectrscopy. Last is the spectroscopy of GRB 000210. Priorities are indicated
in the OBs.

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 FORS1 Phase 2 web page ?
