## Methods  Here you explain your experiment.  Example: The purpose of this investigation was to compare the images resulting from different exposure times using the PROMPT Telescopes to the recommendations listed for the Faulkes Telescope:  |**Object Type** | **Lower Limit** | **Usual Exposure Range** | **Better Images** | 

  **NOTE: This table did not come out well at all when I exported as an article ( I used Markdown conventions.)**  Next I cut and pasted the html from the Faulkes website:

  **That did not export well either.**
