Our largest astronomical telescope project at one of the best sites on Earth. 三程飞机，再通宵开300公里车到达青海冷湖，处理我们历来最大型天文望远镜技术项目。这里加上云南一共有四十多个塔，每一个塔都是一台大型望远镜。这里大气稳定度可以媲美南极洲Dome A、夏威夷同埋智利，达到0.3"以下，属世界最顶级。这地点历史上也很特别，是在隋唐及吐蕃夹击下烟没在历史长河的古国吐谷浑，不远处是杜甫的《兵车行》写到古来白骨无人收的青海头。
After taking three connecting flights and then driving 300 kilometers overnight, we finally arrived at Lenghu, Qinghai, to work on the largest astronomical telescope technical project we’ve ever handled. Together with the installations in Yunnan, there are over forty towers, each one a large telescope. The atmospheric stability in this area rivals that of Dome A in Antarctica, Hawaii, and Chile, reaching below 0.3 arcseconds, making it one of the best sites in the world for astronomical observation. This location is also special in history. It lies within the ancient kingdom of Tuyuhun, a nation that vanished from history amidst the conflicts between the Sui-Tang dynasties and the Tibetan Empire. Not far from here is the place Du Fu described in his poem "The Army Carts”, where "since ancient times, white bones lie unburied along the frontier at Qinghai.”
