Abstract for MTS:
Long term imaging monitoring of close binary brown dwarf system Eps Indi Ba, Bb. Seeing constraint is critical for accurate astrometry of the two components - currently the separation of the binary is at its maximum of ~0.9".

TIME CRITICAL: please distribute the 6 epochs over the whole P77. Minimum useful separation between the two epochs is ~15 days. Ideally observe 1 OB every month.

SPECIAL CALIBRATIONS: Since the programme uses non-standard read-out the PI provided the twilight flat OBs. Please execute one with each science OB. Note: the coordinates in the flat field OB should be updated with the appropriate FORS twilight empty field according to the time of observation.
