-Examining this URL, it does not provide direct access to the SPHEREx spectral image. Rather, it returns a file that lists all the data products and services associated with this spectral image. For the SPHEREx Quick Release products, this includes:

-(1) the primary product, a Spectral Image MEF ('semantics' column is #this); and
-
-(2) a cutout service ('semantics' is #cutout).
