    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_Pole_Telescope

    The South Pole Telescope (SPT) is a 10-metre (390 in) diameter telescope located at the AmundsenScott South Pole Station, Antarctica.The telescope is designed for observations in the microwave, millimeter-wave, and submillimeter-wave regions of the electromagnetic spectrum, with the particular design goal of measuring the faint, diffuse emission from the cosmic microwave background (CMB).

    The United States maintains the southernmost base, AmundsenScott South Pole Station, and the largest base and research station in Antarctica, McMurdo Station. The second-southernmost base is the Chinese Kunlun Station at 80°25′2″S during the summer season, and the Russian Vostok Station at 78°27′50″S during the winter season.
