Descripción
The atmospheric Precipitable Water Vapour content (PWV) is crucial for astronomical observations in the infrared. In this work, we have validated the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) mesoscale numerical model as an operational tool for PWV at Roque de los Muchachos astronomical Observatory (ORM). We used radiosonde data obtained directly at the Observatory and at the sea level. An excellent agreement between PWV model forecasts and observations was found at both verification points with a correlation above 0.9.

    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
