J0404+1112 is a 2.93 hr period totally eclipsing WD+BD system with a hot DA white dwarf (T_eff ~28,000 K) and ~40 M_Jup brown dwarf, enabling isolation of nightside emission and serving as a JWST atmospheric benchmark.
Pandora simulations recover stellar photospheric temperatures to ~30 K with no bias and reduce simple spot contamination from 100-1000 ppm to under 10 ppm, but complex spot geometries leave ~1000 ppm residuals.
Proposes a two-generation Nautilus observatory program using time-series spectroscopy of transiting systems and stellar monitoring to benchmark models of stellar photospheric heterogeneities for exoplanet transmission spectroscopy.
