DOI: 00.0000/X000000000000000X Winter sky brightness and cloud cover at Dome A, Antarctica
Abstract. At the summit of the Antarctic plateau, Dome A offers an intriguing location for future large scale optical astronomical observatories. The Gattini Dome A project was created to measure the optical sky brightness and large area cloud cover of the winter-time sky above this high altitude An...
