Superstar Megan Bedell is touring the ESO archive! Get your tickets online!

1. If you don't already have them, install astroquery and BeautifulSoup.

2. Update prepare_download.py to use your ESO username so I don't get blamed when the ESO archive crashes (again).

3. Run python prepare_download.py

4. Do as instructed by the script: cd data; sh download.sh, and enter your ESO password when asked.

5. When ESO asks, deny all responsibility.

Use the query_object.py script:

python query_object.py <ra> <dec> --name my_star

Use the -h flag to get more informatioon on the options available.

python query_object.py -h

You will need to provide a file with your ESO credentials, which by default is set to eso_credentials.yml. The contents of the ESO credentials file should be something like:

eso:
  username: bedell
  password: pupper
