I think we should add a comment about the data volume. Something like "NOTE! This cell will download 13 GB of data to your $SAS_BASE_DIR." before cell 2 maybe?

And maybe mention how large the gaia file is too...

I added a warning about large file sizes.

I started adding code to download the fits files, then I decided to look at the data volume. And now I'm thinking maybe we make that "sciserver only" tutorial? With disclaimers about long run time? And maybe couch it as an argument for only dealing with this data in DB or parquet form?

Ah, sorry that should have been in main. Getting too lazy with tutorial development apparently! We'll merge this soon enough so I think I'll leave it.
