This article reviews the situation for robotization of telescopes and instruments at the Antarctic station Concordia on Dome C. We describe and summarize the challenges for night-time operations of various astronomical experiments at conditions “between Earth and Space” and conclude that robotization is likely a prerequisite for continuous astronomical data taking during the 2000-hour night at Dome C.

Abstract
This article reviews the situation for robotization of telescopes and instruments at the Antarctic station Concordia on Dome C. We describe and summarize the challenges for night-time operations of various astronomical experiments at conditions “between Earth and Space” and conclude that robotization is likely a prerequisite for continuous astronomical data taking during the 2000-hour night at Dome C.File in questo prodotto:
