General Description

Dear observers, 

this program is ISAAC SW spectroscopic observations of a late T dwarf object, 
in J band, totaling approximately 3 hours (including overheads).  
The point is to be able to classify the type of T dwarf from the spectral shape
 around 1.3 um.  

The OBs have been broken up into ~1 hour blocks to aid in execution. 
Acquisition is taken from a nearby blind offset reference star, and the slit
should be rotated to observe both the target and the offset reference star.

(can you please verify the correct angle, as mentioned in the inst manual)

please contact me if you have any questions, thanks --
