What's that little dip in the peak near 546nm?  Are there two mercury lines there?

  Are you sure? yes | no

Hey Ted, yes it is, but its not one of the calibration points, the peak though is 542nm, I'll put up another RSpec plot with reference lines for Mercury that will show exactly where the element peaks are at.

  Are you sure? yes | no

I just posted an updated plot showing the HG (mercury lines)

Thanks! I knew there was a double line in the yellow, but never noticed two in the green before.

That's really good.  Can you verify/estimate that this spectrum is close to a 6500K color temperature?

  Are you sure? yes | no

Yeah I can Ted, I'm still trying to figure that part out in this program, getting the hang of it :)

  Are you sure? yes | no

That is so cool and it's art as well :-)

Hello good Dr. :)

It does look pretty doesn't it?
