Can we resolve the WR star?
Not with baselines smaller than 100m in K band,Better in H and very good in J (He10830)
We therefore expect a ‘simple’ binary signal

Actual situation:. Papers are based on 2-6 visibility measurements only,
. UT time pressure,
. ATs commissioning in progress,
. Limiting magnitude problems (no fringe tracker…)
. Interesting science only with a coupling with classical techniques (polarimetry, spectroscopy, radio imaging…)
. The progress will be slow:. The VLTI is now almost crystallized,. We have to ‘learn and understand’ the VLTI
. Give access to broad community,
Success: Only interferometer worldwide offered in Open Time! . Pionnier in extragalactic studies, mid-IR regime and high spectral resolution,
