\maketitle
\begin{abstract}
Briefly summarize what you did. A good resource for learning more about {\LaTeX} can be found by clicking this \href{https://www.overleaf.com/learn/}{link}. Google is also helpful, e.g. ``how to italicize in latex". (Optional)
\end{abstract}
\section{Introduction}
Give a background description of your object.
Describe what you will be doing in the following sections, e.g., in \S\ref{s:data_product} ...
Here's an example of quoting and citing: ``I always thought something was fundamentally wrong with the universe'' \citep{adams1995hitchhiker}. Here's another way to cite, \cite{1962ApJ...136..748E} and \cite{skyandtelescope}.
For more information on how to cite things, see this \href{https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Bibliography_management_with_natbib}{natbib} page.

\section{Data Product}\label{s:data_product}
Describe the image observations (when, where, what filters, exposure times, etc). You can find this information in the FITS header in Maxim DL (ctrl-f). You could include some of this information in a table as in Table \ref{tab:my_label}:
% For positioning info, see https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Positioning_of_Figures
\begin{table}[!h]
\centering
\begin{tabular}{l|c}
\toprule
Quantity & Value \\
\midrule
Filter & R \\
Exposure & 60 s \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{Here is my table caption}
\label{tab:my_label}
\end{table}
Describe how you produced your data product (e.g. image)...
If you want to use bullet points or numbering lists, try the following:
\begin{itemize}
\item Here is an item
\item Here is another item
\end{itemize}
\begin{enumerate}
\item Here is the first item
\item Here is the second item
\end{enumerate}
You can point your reader to your figure: see Figure \ref{fig:universe}.
% For positioning info, see https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/Positioning_of_Figures
\begin{figure}[h!]
\centering
\includegraphics[width=0.75\columnwidth]{universe.jpg}
\caption{The Universe. Adjust the width value to change the size of the image.}
\label{fig:universe}
\end{figure}
\section{Analysis}\label{s:analysis}
This is an example of how to typeset an equation
\begin{equation}\label{eq:ratio}
x = \frac{a}{b}
\end{equation}
and here is how to reference equation (\ref{eq:ratio}). It is optional to add a label to an equation.
This is an example of how to align an equation over multiple lines. The * prevents an equation number from being shown
\begin{alignat*}{1}
x
&= \frac{a}{b} \\
&= \frac{2 \, \text{km}}{5 \, \text{s}}
\end{alignat*}
% The "\," creates a space
One can also enlarge the parenthesis
\begin{alignat*}{1}
m
&= m_0 - 5\log_{100}(\frac{f}{f_0}) \\
&= m_0 - 5\log_{100}\left(\frac{f}{f_0}\right) \\
\end{alignat*}
Here's a way to insert math into a sentence $y = m\cdot x + b$ and another way of inserting an expression:
\[
\theta_\text{rad} = 100 \, \text{px}
\left(\frac{0.75''}{1 \, \text{px}}\right)
\left(\frac{1 \, \text{rad}}{206265''}\right)
\approx
3.6 \times 10^{-4} \, \text{rad}
\]
