General Description

The goal of this program is to identify two so far elusive ultra steep
 spectrum radio sources thanks to the broad wavelength range of X-shooter. Both target
 of K magnitudes around 19 and is no particular priority between them. 

Both sources were observed with FORS but spectra did not show any features which
 makes them very good candidates high redshift sources. If indeed these sources lie
 at very high redshift, we expect to find emission lines most likely in the NIR or
 the red part of the VIS.

Acquisition of these faint sources is done through blind offset from a 2mass star.
