ETC Request ID: STIS.ta.1382670

Exposure time (seconds) = 0.5000

gives: SNR = 56.7030

gives: Time to Saturation (for a single exposure) = 143.65 seconds

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: Partial overlap between instrument throughput band and target spectrum. Please doublecheck the wavelength range covered by the selected spectrum, and the instrument documentation for the selected filter.
