During the day the STV Video Camera was focussed and the finder telescope was adjusted to the optical axis of the main telescope. Some observations of the moon were done during the day. There are problems with the alignment of the telescope. GPS alignment does not seem to work. Only two star alignments were possible. Therefore observations of objects during the daytime are possible only without tracking.

After sunset, in the twilight the STV camera was mounted at the main telescope and observations were done of the moon, Jupiter and Saturn. During this time the viewing was quite good. The crew enjoyed observing the planets while drinking a hot cup of tea, whereas the astronomer did some cold work in the observatory. This is good motivation to work with the remote control as soon as possible.

Starting at 9 PM the viewing had worsen. For this reason deep sky objects were chosen for observation. Here the STV meet sits limits. It is time now to start observations with the CFW-8 camera. When the clouds came in around 11:30 PM our observations were terminated.
