Meeting from 10/9/2007 at Oil City High School
We are going to get started monitoring our brighter T-Tauri candidates and generating light curves for them in the R and I band.
I (S. Weiser) have selecetd two targets to monitor:
SSTiau Name is 050511.5-064346, RA = 5h 5m 11.6s, DEC = -6d 43m 46.9s, Rmag = 15.3
SSTiau Name is 050517.4-063734, RA = 5h 5m 17.5s, DEC = -6d 37m 34.3s, Rmag = 16.7
Estimated exposure time - 180sec
Using http://heavens-above.com and The Sky planetarium software I've estimated we will want to be on the telescope in Perth Australia sometime between 3:00 PM and 5:00 PM EST throughout October and November. Does everyone else agree?
Using the New Mexico Sky telescope (near El Paso, Texas), we will need to be on the telescope between 6:00 AM and 7:30 AM EST. Does everyone agree?
Meeting 10/17/07 At OCHS
These are the Targets I have chosen to monitor.-Nick_
SSTiau Name is 050730.1-061015, RA=05:07:30.2 DEC= -06:10:15.9
SSTiau Name is 050730.6-061059, RA=05:07:30.6 DEC= -06:10:59.7
Exposure time of 180secs, Viewing time from Oil City 2:00pm-5:00pm Est, will be using the Perth Telescope.
Telescope Time Reserved
FROM Tim Spuck
Sandy, I agree with you about the times for Perth and New Mexico Skies. I've reserved the following time in Perth. We can get time on New Mexico Skies as well from the folks at NOAO. Thanks, Mr. Spuck

Failed attempt
-Nick-
First attempt to take an image using Perth Failed Due to Weather. 10/17/07
X-Dani-
My targets are

TUTORIAL QUESTIONS
X-Dani-
1) is it giong to be interactive or informational?
a) are people going to be able to "plug in" the information and it's going to spit out a light curve? b) is it just going to be a "follow along paper" telling them how to do it step by step?
Perth Observing results 10/22/2007
From Dani ... we tried observing T-Tauri targets using the telescope. Weather looked good at 3:32 PM EST, but telescope stated "Conditions were not sufficient for Observing". Nick K also tried earlier, but got the same results.
Observing Results 10/23/2007
FROM DANI.... Tried to image at 13:31 EST and this is what it gave me... "Process Completed There was a problem with the JPEG preview. See the console log for details. You can go to the logs area to look at or download the run log for this acquisition. Current Status RA Dec Az Alt 09:26:55 -60°00'03" 146° 27°
Run Journal/Log Output The script failed. Reasons may include.......
1) Its daytime!!! (Perth is GMT + 8 hours) 2) The weather conditions are not sufficient for observing 3) The script was aborted by the user 4) The slew coordinates drifted below the horizon 5) The scope, camera or both are not connected 6) REQUEST ABORTED BY ACP
You can see the dome through our sky camera at ..... http://www.perthobservatory.wa.gov.au/information/po_sky_camera.html
TRY - AGAIN ..... TRY AGAIN ..... TRY AGAIN" .... this seems to happen alot. it happened to nick also when he tried to image just a few minutes before I did. is something wrong with the telescope? When I checked whether conditions it was clear and the windspeed was at 6.7, so the conditions should have been fine....... i tried again at 13:37 and it stated the same thing. pattern? okay, so it just toldme at 13:39 that the whether conditions were insuffecient or something along those lines... what exactly are the ideal conditions? [end of Dani post.]
Perth failure
From Nick, today I attempted to image my targets at 13:15 est and again at 15:31est. Both times the imaging failed due to some internal problem with the Perth Telescope. I then tried at 16:20est.
From Matt H, I also attempted to image my targets at 16:00 est. At this time the imaging failed for some reason that has to do with Perth Telescope
FROMDANI... I also attempted to image and got the same results as Nick and Mattheath
