Science Cases
There are three main science challenges for a new all-sky astrometry mission: 1. Peering through the dust: NIR astrometry (and simultaneous photometry) is crucial for penetrating obscured regions and for observing intrinsically red objects when implemented with sufficient accuracy. Peering through the dust of the Milky Way to obtain a dense sampling of the phase space is necessary to properly stud
