Caption: Figure 2.

Goodman spectrum of TOI 1227 (black) and a template M5V dwarf from Kesseli et al. (2017). Because of extinction around TOI 1227 and imperfect flux calibration from Goodman, we fit out a second-order polynomial on the Goodman spectrum to better match the template. The Goodman spectrum is also higher resolution than the template (R of 5880 vs. 2000). The inset highlights the Li λ6708 line, which is absent in the spectrum of older stars like the template, but strong in TOI 1227’s spectrum.
