LSST will image 18,000 square degrees of sky about 800 times across six bands over 10 years to a coadded depth of r~27.5, producing a public database of 40 billion objects and 32 trillion observations.

Spitzer mid-IR monitoring of all known Y dwarfs yields variability fractions of 35-75% that, when combined with L/T dwarf data, weakly support condensate cloud variations as the driver of brown dwarf variability.
Combined JWST spectra of Y dwarf WD 0806-661B fitted with ATMO 2020++ models give Teff 357 K, radius 1.08 RJup and mass 7 MJup, consistent with evolutionary models at 1.6 Gyr.
Laser-sail picospacecraft swarms could deliver gigapixel imaging of Proxima b during near-relativistic flybys and detect signs of surface life or civilization.

The Y Dwarf Companion to the White Dwarf WD 0806-66: Resolving the Discrepancy Between Atmospheric and Evolutionary Models
Combined JWST spectra of Y dwarf WD 0806-661B fitted with ATMO 2020++ models give Teff 357 K, radius 1.08 RJup and mass 7 MJup, consistent with evolutionary models at 1.6 Gyr.
