Scientific paper

The paper briefly considers the European astrometry satellite project Hipparcos and possible astrometry applications of the Space Telescope. Very precise measurements of trigonometric parallaxes and proper motions will be provided: (1) Hipparcos for a very large number of stars of every spectral type, brighter than apparent magnitude 14; and (2) the Space Telescope for a small number of faint and very faint stars (magnitudes 10 to 20). In addition, Hipparcos will offer the unique possibility of a complete survey up to apparent magnitude 9.
