We propose a program of study to tackle these uncertainties, describe the necessary facilities, and discuss the potential science gains that would result.ELETTRONICOenArticlehttps://baas.aas.org/pub/2020n3i378/release/12019BAAS...51c.378CFIS/05 - ASTRONOMIA E ASTROFISICAERC sectors::Physical Sciences and Engineering::PE9 Universe sciences: astro-physics/chemistry/biology; solar systems; stellar, galactic and extragalactic astronomy, planetary systems, cosmology, space science, instrumentation
