Abstract

We present an outline of the main motivations, goals, procedures, and first scientifiic results of a dedicated astrometric program aimed at determining trigonometric parallaxes for new nearby (D < 25) stars in the Southern sky. This program is being carried out at the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory (CTIO), Chile.
