Spectroscopic measurements confirm a tight 6D phase-space clump of four RGB stars as part of the distant southern spur of the Sagittarius stream, likely stripped from Sagittarius's halo in the earliest interaction phases.

The Via Project is a planned five-year dual-hemisphere spectroscopic survey targeting over 2 million stars with 100 m/s RV stability and transient spectroscopy to r~24 using instruments on MMT and Magellan/Clay telescopes starting in 2027.
A uniform spectroscopic catalog of 625 exoplanet hosts shows subsolar-metallicity giant-planet hosts are alpha-enhanced relative to both iron-rich hosts and typical metal-poor field stars.
