John

• Back on sky with two telescopes!

Words from Randy

Randy

• Positive feedback on the new TeamKeck review process

• Probably going to level 3 soon, stay tuned for developments this week

• Last night K1 was pretty much flawless, weird split night between HIRES/OSIRIS-LGS/HIRES

  • During science verification night, with TRICK on the GC, the image quality was so high that the images were under-sampled

• Randy suggests the use of breakout rooms on Zoom to have side conversations

• Jim has added the host key in the showpassword repository

Pajama mode

John

• Remember to properly log tickets/issues with pajamas mode

• Policies about first time observers and pajama parties

• Greg: for remote stations that are used for the first time, best to have a pajama mode observer just in case

• We might be able to have some funding to produce a more reliable and safe solution

Greg

• Maybe we should differentiate testAll from instrument checkout scripts

• Suggestion 1: For now SAs be proactive to connect with summit lead regarding instrument checkout status

• Suggestion 2: SAs and summit lead connect at 2 pm to touch base on instrument and telescope readiness

• Carlos has a script to check DEIMOS readiness, may be helpful for other instruments.
