English: The 62-centimetre HEAT (High Elevation Antarctic Terahertz) telescope at the Ridge A SCAR observatory located at 4050 metres above sea level. HEAT represents a new mode of doing robotic science in Antarctica, installed from a field camp via “deep-field” deployment, with minimal human presence and infrastructure. From Ridge A the THz windows are open for much of the Antarctic winter, with HEAT undertaking a spectroscopic imaging survey of the Galactic Plane in the carbon and ionised nitrogen lines.
