Guys,
I stumbled on this page last week and promptly lost it...
Now that I've found it again, I thought I'd post it:
http://etacar.umn.edu/archive/
There is an archive of old spectra of eta carinae. I haven't done it yet but if we can open these in VSpec then there's a ready made source of spectra to practice with and learn our way around VSpec.
Al.
PS. Guys... might not be as simple as I thought. The spectra fits files are .tar files. It sounds like you need a program called tar to uncompress... I'll see what I can find...
