Mushure mekubudirira kwekutanga muna Ndira 2008, nyanzvi dzemuchadenga dzekuChina dzichavaka network ine simba kwazvo yeteresikopu muDome A kumusoro kweSouth Pole, nyanzvi yenyeredzi akadaro pamusangano waizopera neChina muHaining, kumabvazuva kweChina mudunhu reZhejiang.
Musi wa26 Ndira, 2009, masayendisiti ekuChina akagadzira nzvimbo yekuongorora nyeredzi muAntarctica.Mushure mekubudirira kwekutanga, muna Ndira vachavaka network yakasimba yeteresikopu muDome A kumusoro kweSouth Pole, nyanzvi yezvemuchadenga yakati paSimposium.July 23, Haining, Zhejiang Province.
Gong Xuefei, nyanzvi yezvemuchadenga ane chekuita nechirongwa cheteresikopu, akaudza Taiwan Strait Astronomical Instruments Forum kuti teresikopu itsva iri kuedzwa uye teresikopu yekutanga inotarisirwa kuiswa kuSouth Pole muzhizha ra2010 na2011.
Gong, mudiki anotsvaga paNanjing Institute of Astronomical Optics, akati network itsva yeAntarctic Schmidt Telescope 3 (AST3) ine materesikopu matatu eSchmidt ane 50 centimita aperture.
Manetiweki ekare aive China Diki Telescope Array (CSTAR), yaive nemateresikopu mana e14.5 cm.
Cui Xiangqun, mukuru weChina National Aeronautics and Space Administration, akaudza Xinhua News Agency kuti AST3's mabhenefiti makuru pamusoro peyakaitangira inzvimbo yayo yakakura yekuvhura uye inogadziriswa lens kutarisisa, iyo inoibvumira kuona nzvimbo zvakanyanya uye kuronda inofamba mitumbi yedenga.
Cui akati AST3, iyo inodhura pakati pemakumi mashanu nemakumi matanhatu emamiriyoni yuan (inenge US$7.3 miriyoni kusvika 8.8 miriyoni), ichaita basa rakakura mukutsvaga mapuraneti akafanana nePasi nemazana esupernovae.
Gong akati vagadziri veteresikopu nyowani yakavakirwa pachiitiko chekare uye vakafunga nezve akakosha mamiriro senge Antarctica yakaderera tembiricha uye yakaderera kudzvanywa.
Nharaunda yeAntarctic ine mamiriro ekunze anotonhora uye akaoma, husiku hurefu hwepanyika, mhepo shoma shoma, uye guruva shoma, izvo zvinobatsira pakuongorora nyeredzi.Dome A inzvimbo yakanaka yekuona, uko materesikopu anogona kuburitsa mifananidzo yemhando yakafanana neyeteresikopu iri muchadenga, asi nemutengo wakaderera.
