My name is Erica Hopkins and I’m a junior astrophysics major. Tonight was our second night observing at Kitt Peak. We had good observing for most of the night, however it got cloudy near the end. We got over a dozen images of Palomar 13 in both V and B band and a few images of Ursa Major II. Ursa Major II is only up for a short time and we lost some of that time due to bad weather. Overall it was a successful night and we look forward to continuing our observations the next two nights.
