Query: The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey I: Introduction and observational
  overview   The VLT-FLAMES Tarantula Survey (VFTS) is an ESO Large Programme that has
obtained multi-epoch optical spectroscopy of over 800 massive stars in the 30
Doradus region of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). Here we introduce our
scientific motivations and give an overview of the survey targets, including
optical and near-infrared photometry and comprehensive details of the data
reduction. One of the principal objectives was to detect massive binary systems
via variations in their radial velocities, thus shaping the multi-epoch
observing strategy. Spectral classifications are given for the massive
emission-line stars observed by the survey, including the discovery of a new
Wolf-Rayet star (VFTS 682, classified as WN5h), 2' to the northeast of R136. To
illustrate the diversity of objects encompassed by the survey, we investigate
the spectral properties of sixteen targets identified by Gruendl & Chu from
Spitzer photometry as candidate young stellar objects or stars with notable
mid-infrared excesses. Detailed spectral classification and quantitative
analysis of the O- and B-type stars in the VFTS sample, paying particular
attention to the effects of rotational mixing and binarity, will be presented
in a series of future articles to address fundamental questions in both stellar
and cluster evolution.
