Mars (spectrum), c

Fiddling with the DSS-7 spectrograph and Mars. Hoping for a little CO2 once I get the calibration done and the data plotted. There will probably be a LOT of water vapor since our site had a heavy dew event during the image captures.

 

For the curious: SBIG DSS-7 spectrograph (object on 5-micron slit), ST-7 XME camera, and Celestron C-11 telescope.

 

This exposure 30 seconds, range 36,722 ADU. Camera binned 2:1.

 

Slit oriented N/S wrt: Mars.
