Julie (all SAAO)	Simon de Wet	BlackGEM	tns_2026nad_2026-05-22_03-20-09.349_Lesedi_Mookodi_BlackGEM.csv		Object			The spectrum was taken with the SAAO's 1-m Lesedi robotic telescope with the Mookodi low-resolution spectrograph and imager as part of the “IO” rapid follow-up program [2]. The spectrum was obtained with the widest (4") slit width, which yields a spectral resolution of R ~ 200 at 6000 Angstrom.
