   2. We closed the mirror doors, then Onkar recorded the re-opening.
3. Pointed using Jupiter and Scheat, Katie helped
4. Attached Bill's pPICSARR2 to DFM Scope
5. Set focus position to 2600, adjusted more to 2608.2
6. Issue with DC, the stepper motor and the filter wheel motor weren't connecting to data computer
   1. Stepper motor software wasn't installed? From ThorLabs
   2. Filter wheel software should be available through SharpCap
   3. So we used Bill's laptop to collect data
7. Moved to GRW+70 8247 in northern sky
   
   1. Polarization calibrations w/ full Stokes
8. Moved to NGC 188 also in northern sky
   1. Astrometric calibrations
   2. In TheSky6, navigate to Telescope → Motion Controls
      1. Set coord to RA/DEC
      2. Set jog amount
      3. Slew will ask for confirmation as with normal object slewing
9. Moved to beta Cass in northern sky 
   1. Polarization Calibration w/ full Stokes
10. Moved back to Jupiter
    1. Polarization Calibration w/ full Stokes
    2. Noticed that half disc of Jupiter drifted in 300s (20''/300s)
    3. Not explainable by only Sidereal rate
11. Bill notices trailing in northern sky as well
12. Moved to Europa
13. Moved to Mars
14. Moved to Neptune
15. Interest in finding Blazars with circular polarization
