Descripción
The basic capabilities of the Wide Field Imager (WFI) were described in a previous Messenger article (No. 93, p. 13; see also Table 1) which also includes a brief account of the contributions by the three participating institutes, namely ESO (Garching and La Silla), the Max-Planck- Institut für Astronomie in Heidelberg, and the Osservatorio Astronomico di Capodimonte in Napoli. Table 1 summarises the most important characteristics. A first fairly complete version of the user manual is now offered via the WFI home page on the Web (URL: http://www.ls.eso.org/ lasilla/Telescopes/2p2T/E2p2M/WFI/WFI. html). The same page also provides access to some examples of pictures obtained with the instrument. An exposure time calculator is available under the URL: http://www.eso.org/observing/etc/

    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
