ETC Request ID: STIS.sp.1005929

Exposure time (seconds) = 1.0000 at wavelength 2375.00 Å

gives: SNR = 7.4038 (per resolution element)

gives: Time to Saturation (for a single exposure) = 182.01 seconds

Exposure time calculation HAD WARNINGS.

WARNING MESSAGE: "Electrons per pixel due to background (0.009) is less than the recommended threshold of 20 electrons to avoid poor charge transfer efficiency (CTE). We suggest you consider CTE mitigation strategies described in the STIS Instrument Handbook."
