The Best Place on Earth

... well, to observe astronomically, that is. It's been found, and it's not exactly your backyard: it's in Antarctica, and moreover in a fairly remote spot. Universe Today has more details. I love the idea that this spot has the best atmospheric conditions on Earth yet found, but I wonder 1) how they're gonna build a big observatory there, and b) who will winter over to staff it? And actually, c) will they stock a flamethrower?
