Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
The goal of this program is to provide a high resolution / high SNR (40-60)
atlas of low mass star spectra in the wavelength region 980-1070nm.
Two M-stars, GJ 1002 and GJ 1224, are observed in nine different wavelength settings
to scan the entire region.
Both targets are nearby stars with large proper motions. GJ1224 moves about 0.7"
per year, GJ1002 more than 2" per year. For GJ1002, the finding charts show a part
of the sky larger than the 50" CRIRES requirement since the star's position will
be about 18" different to the one on the 2MASS finding chart. Nonetheless, it will
be the brightest object around and easy to spot.
Waiver Requests
Waiver granted that OBs can be longer than one hour, here 1h2m are required.

Do the README file and the instrument comments of the telluric stars
OBs include the required S/N/pixel of the spectrum of the telluric star, its spectral
type and allowed spectral range?
Do any OBs include wavelength or flatfield calibrations?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If the slit viewer guide star is different from the target, are the RA
and DEC offsets accurate to within 0.05 arcsec and do they take into account the
relative proper motion between the two objects?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first for objects
at similar RA, did you make use of the User Priority field in the OBs?
