We validate the program with our first results, using a single new epoch of observations of the Y0pec dwarf WISE J163940.83-684738.6. These new data allowed us to refine its proper motion and improve the accuracy of its parallax by a factor of three compared to previous determinations, now constrained to ϖ = 211.11 ± 0.56 mas. This newly derived absolute parallax corresponds to a distance of 4.737 ± 0.013 pc, an exquisite and unprecedented precision for faint ultracool Y dwarfs.STAMPAenThe Y dwarf population with HST: unlocking the secrets of our coolest neighbours - I.
