16. Comparison of solar type spectra
|
Daylight test spectrum from RBT/PST2 spectrograph and solar type (night) stellar spectrum from PST1.

17. Test spectra from RBT/PST2 spectrograph
Daylight sky and Th-Ar lamp spectra made using the new spectrograph (crops).
Downloadable full size FITS files are here and here. The spectrograph was lacking perfect collimation and focus at that time.
18. The new telescope moving to find horizontal home switch position.
