Then you will receive “STARS2 Stored Query” message by e-mail. Please download the data following its instruction. You can also get a script for data downloading (S2Query.tar) from MySTARS tab. In the tab, choose the QueryName which you saved in previous step and find the page “One Query” (figure 3). S2Query.tar can be downloaded at the bottom of this page.
