Initialize a new target from a file containing the spectral flux density values
Parameters
----------
file : str
The file to read the spectral flux density values from. The file needs to provide two columns: wavelength
and the corresponding spectral flux density. The format of the file will be guessed by
`astropy.io.ascii.read(). If the file doesn't provide units via astropy's enhanced CSV format, the units
will be read from the column headers or otherwise assumed to be *nm* and *W / m^2 / nm*.

Wavelengths used for binning
