How this entity was disambiguated
This entity first appeared as the object of triple T17661648 — resolving that mention is where its identity was fixed. The disambiguator weighed these candidate entities and picked the highlighted one (or “None”, minting a new entity). This is how homonymy is resolved: the same surface form can point to different entities.

-
A.
Fiber-fed Extended Range Optical Spectrograph
Fiber-fed Extended Range Optical Spectrograph is a high-resolution echelle spectrograph used in astronomy to obtain precise, wide-wavelength-range stellar spectra, notably for studies such as radial-velocity measurements and stellar characterization.
-
B.
Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope
The Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) is a Chinese wide-field optical telescope designed to collect spectra from thousands of celestial objects simultaneously for large-scale sky surveys.
-
C.
Faint Object Spectrograph
The Faint Object Spectrograph was an early-generation Hubble Space Telescope instrument designed to obtain detailed spectra of very dim astronomical objects across a wide range of wavelengths.
-
D.
Infrared Multi-Slit Spectrometer
The Infrared Multi-Slit Spectrometer is a planned TMT instrument designed to obtain simultaneous high-resolution infrared spectra of multiple astronomical targets using a multi-slit configuration.
-
E.
Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer
The Near Infrared Camera and Multi-Object Spectrometer (NICMOS) is a Hubble Space Telescope instrument designed to capture high-resolution images and spectra in the near-infrared, enabling studies of faint, distant, and dust-obscured astronomical objects.
- F. None of above. chosen
- G. Unsure - the case is ambiguous/there is not enough information to decide.
