68-804 Galaxy Cluster SNe

PI: Ana Acebron Muñoz

Observing instructions:

Simple R-band imaging of a Galaxy cluster with the complication of an added acquisition phase to ensure correct pointing. The OB generator does not support this, therefore no OBs to be found!

Just execute the specially prepared script as shown below. It will complain about not being able to check the setup, but it uses the standard R-band filter (#76) so this can be ignored.

Go to the directory
cd ~/scripts/68-804

and execute the script:
SPECIAL_SCRIPT

The acquisition consists of putting the cursor on the star marked on the finding chart. Follow instructions given in the sequencer window.
