Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
This is a spectroscopic run, observing Eta Carinae and its nebulosity
in a number of wavelength regions. The slit is aligned in the same way for all settings.
In addition, a telluric star is obererved.
Identification of target: Eta Carinae is an extended object (about 20"). The science
target is the central star.
The central star is the most intense part on which the slit should be aligned. The
other parts of the nebula will then also be covered when the slit is oriented according
to the specifications.
The required S/N for the telluric star is 70.
The given telluric star has SpTyp B1.5V, and an allowed spectral range is B0-B5.

Do the README file and the instrument comments of the telluric stars
OBs include the required S/N/pixel of the spectrum of the telluric star, its spectral
type and allowed spectral range?
Do any OBs include wavelength or flatfield calibrations?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If the slit viewer guide star is different from the target, are the RA
and DEC offsets accurate to within 0.05 arcsec and do they take into account the
relative proper motion between the two objects?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first for objects
at similar RA, did you make use of the User Priority field in the OBs?
