General Description

The primary targets of this FORS2/MOS run are faint, distant (expected
 redshift >2), very massive, red galaxies, including both evolved systems and
 active starforming objects.
The goal is to characterize the nature of these sources, through detection of absorption
 or emission lines. Mask-fillers are mainly selected among massive lower-redshift
 (between 1 and 2) galaxies.

Each mask is going to be observed three times, by means to three different OBs.
 
We named "_1, _2, _3" the three OBs belonging to the same pointing.
We are offsetting along the slit, in order to optimize sky subtraction.
Two different exposures at two different offset positions are included in each OB.

Waiver Requests

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

No critical observing conditions required, 
apart for those specified in the OBs Constraint Set.

Time-Critical Aspects

```
No time critical aspects

Special Execution Requirements

If Possible, we would prefer to complete  the execution of each set of
 three OBs "_1, _2, _3"
belonging to the same mask, before proceeding with another mask.

Special Calibration Information

No Special Calibration are required,
because we are using standard instrument configurations.
