IRAIT: a Telescope for Infrared Astronomy from Antarctica
We present the status of the project IRAIT (the Italian Robotic Antarctic Infrared Telescope), that will be hosted at Dome C in the Italo-French Concordia station on the Antarctic Plateau. We review the main scientific motivations of the effort, and describe the main characteristics of the telecope,...
