 Single target (very faint, V=25.5) program, with the goal of better 
constraining the nature of the isolated neutron star RX J1856.5-3754 
from the measurement the H alpha line profile of a small cometary 
emission nebula surrounding this soft X-ray source. 

 No special requirement. Program consists of a series of 10 observations, 
to be taken with 2 different slit orientations (5 with slit parallel to 
axis of simmetry, and 5 with slit perpendicular to it). Offset star 
provided for centering.
