Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
The main scientific goal of this experiment is to provide
detailed and homogeneous measurements of Galactic Cepheids
located across the Galactic disk. This means that our targets
are relatively bright field stars.
The finding charts attached to the individual OBs are centered
on the target and the targets are indicated by a white arrow.
During the check-in of the OBs, we received a Verification
Message warning: "TARGET never rises above 1.5 airmass.
We are aware of this problem, but fortunately all this targets,
according to the object observability available at the ESO web page,
are visible with an airmass smaller than 2.0 for more than 1 hour in July.

Do the README file and the instrument comments of the telluric stars
OBs include the required S/N/pixel of the spectrum of the telluric star, its spectral
type and allowed spectral range?
Do any OBs include wavelength or flatfield calibrations?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If the slit viewer guide star is different from the target, are the RA
and DEC offsets accurate to within 0.05 arcsec and do they take into account the
relative proper motion between the two objects?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first for objects
at similar RA, did you make use of the User Priority field in the OBs?
