TL;DR: In this article, the discovery of T dwarf companions to the nearby stars HN Peg (G0V, 18.4 pc, 0.3 Gyr) and HD 3651 (K0V 11.1 pc, 795 and 476 AU, respectively, was reported.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
The SIRTF Mission
TL;DR: The Space Infrared Telescope Facility (SIRTF) as mentioned in this paper is a cryogenically-cooled, one meter-class space telescope which will be operated by NASA as an observatory for infrared astronomy, in the mid 1990's SIRTF will build on the scientific and technical success of IRAS, but will have greater capabilities in all important scientific areas - wavelength coverage, spectral and spatial resolution, and sensitivity.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
A large-aperture space telescope for infrared and submillimeter astronomy.
James P. Murphy,Michael K. Kiya,Michael W. Werner,Paul N. Swanson,Thomas B. H. Kuiper,Paul D. Batelaan +5 more
TL;DR: The Large Aperture Telescope (LAT) as mentioned in this paper is a large aperture telescope that will operate in the 2-1000 micron wavelength range and has a diameter of 10-30 m. The LAT could be carried into orbit with a single launch of the Space Transportation System and semiautomatically deployed as a free flyer with a nominal 10-yr mission duration.
