Resumen:
This is the story of the Large Programme 666, dedicated to discover
sub-stellar objects (extrasolar planets and brown dwarfs), and to
measure their masses, radii, and mean densities. We hunt selected OGLE
transit candidates using spectroscopy and photometry in the twilight
zone, stretching the limits of what is nowadays possible with the VLT.
