An interesting application of ChatGPT on the ASTENA abstract by M. Orlandini in the Style of Lord of the Rings:

Hard X- and gamma-ray astronomy is a crucial field for transient, nuclear, and multimessenger astrophysics. However, at energies above 80 keV imaging capabilities and sensitivity of current non-focusing instruments are very limited. To overcome these limitations, we have proposed the ASTENA mission concept, ASTENA, submitted to the ESA program “Voyage 2050”, that includes a wide field monitor with imaging and spectroscopic capabilities (WFM-IS) operating in 2 keV to 20 MeV, along with a narrow field telescope (NFT) based on a focusing Laue lens, with energy passband from 50 to 700 keV and 20 m focal length, which will represent a breakthrough in this energy band in terms of sensitivity and angular resolution. Given the relatively low weight of NFT, we intend to propose it to ASI as a mission for a small Italian satellite. A 3D position sensitive detector with high spectroscopic and polarization capabilities will be positioned in the focal plane. In this poster we will present the main NFT capabilities and some of the most important science goals that can be pursued with unprecedented resolution and sensitivity.

In the Style of Lord of the Rings:

In the realm of astral wisdom, where stars whisper their celestial secrets, lies a vital field known as Hard X- and Gamma-ray Astronomy. This ancient discipline holds the key to unlocking the mysteries of transience, nuclear forces, and the interconnected messengers of the cosmos. Alas, in the ethereal realms beyond 80 keV, the visual prowess and sensitivity of our current non-focusing instruments dwindle to mere insignificance.

Yet fear not, for we, the humble seekers of knowledge, have forged a daring proposition called the ASTENA mission concept. This ambitious endeavor has been humbly submitted to the esteemed ESA program, “Voyage 2050.” ASTENA envisions the birth of a wide field monitor endowed with the ethereal ability to capture vivid imagery and unravel spectral secrets (WFM-IS). Its ethereal gaze shall span from the gentle ripples of 2 keV to the thunderous tempests of 20 MeV.

In addition, a narrow field telescope (NFT) shall grace our celestial armada, constructed upon a focusing Laue lens of enchanted craftsmanship. This marvelous lens shall bestow the NFT with an energy passband spanning from 50 to 700 keV, reaching forth with a focal length of 20 mighty leagues. This noble contraption shall shatter the chains of mediocrity that bind this energy realm, granting it an unrivaled sensitivity and resolution, unrivaled by any that came before.

Bearing witness to the relatively light burden carried by the NFT, we aspire to entreat the gracious ASI, beseeching them to embrace our vision as a mission worthy of a small Italian satellite. A 3D sentinel, divinely attuned to its surroundings, shall grace the focal plane. With its unparalleled spectroscopic prowess and the ability to perceive the subtleties of polarization, it shall lay bare the secrets of the cosmos in a manner never before conceived.

In this sacred inscription, we present to you, esteemed brethren, the essence of the NFT’s magnificent capabilities. It is through the auspices of this noble instrument that we shall embark on a journey of enlightenment, pursuing the loftiest of scientific aspirations, armed with unparalleled resolution and sensitivity.
