NAME

twilight_zone -- twilight_zone - runs observing scripts for de Pater, de Kleer, Molter cadenced
twilight observations of planets

Purpose:

Make running the Twilight Zone observing program as straightforward as
possible for observers and OA's without any affiliation to the project.
Defines easy-to-use variables that run the observing scripts requested
for the project.

Usage:

./twilight_zone [-timeit] [-nosetup] [-target <value>] [-nfilt <value>] [-startfilt <value>]

Arguments:

target: Name of the planet or moon you're observing (options Io, Titan, Uranus, Neptune)
nfilt: Number of filters you want to run
startfilt: Which filter should you start with? If not specified do all filters
Must be less than or equal to nfilt
timeit: Calculate time for each filter - used for testing
nosetup: Skip setup at beginning of the script. For experts only

Output:

Will prompt you before running script saying how much time it takes
A set of images taken following the defined filters and dithers.
If -timeit 1, output a .log file containing start and end time

Help:
twilight_zone -h

Examples:

twilight_zone -timeit -target Uranus -nfilt 3

twilight_zone -nosetup -target Io -nfilt 9 -startfilt 7
* this will do filters 7, 8, and 9

twilight_zone -target Titan -nfilt 3 -startfilt 3
* this will do only filter 3
