Description
We present optical and near IR follow up observations of the dark GRB 001109, 1-300 days after the event. No transient emission has been found for these wavelengths within this GRB's (Gamma Ray Burst) BeppoSAX 1' radius error box. Strong limits are set with K' > 20. A highly reddened galaxy, with variable radio emission, was found at z = 0.398. It is undergoing star formation, but seems to be unrelated to the event. We discuss the implications of these observations in the context of the dark GRB class.

    Primitive asteroids in the Main Belt possess one of the most pristine inventories of materials in the Solar System. Main Belt primitive asteroids are particularly interesting due to clear evidence of phyllosilicates, i.e., silicates that have encountered liquid water and undergone chemical alteration. Since asteroids are thought to be likely

    NEOMIR: project statut of ESA's space-based infrared mission for NEO detection and early warning
    To warn about potential asteroid or comet impacts, we must first observe and discover these objects through dedicated NEO surveys. Most current and planned surveys are ground-based and use visible light, but they face limitations like weather dependency, limited sky visibility, difficulty detecting at low galactic latitudes, and inability to
