from webb_scraping import target

Is my target observable?

Let’s say, once more, that we’re interested in observing TRAPPIST-1 with JWST. To set up the answer to this proble, we again call target.Target on our target name. This instantiates a Target object, allowing us to perform scrapes relevant to our target of interest.

test = target.Target("TRAPPIST-1")

We’ll first need to aggregate the relevant data, so we can use the test.scrape_all function.

test.scrape_all()

Next, we can calculate the TSM and ESM, two proxies of SNR introduced in Kempton+ 18, to determine how observable our target is.
