Issue 3: Cold, strong winds, altitude At elevations of nearly 4,000 meters, daytime and nighttime temperatures can vary by well over 10 ° C and the winds often blow like a typhoon. Then there's the thin, low-pressure atmosphere. These are all serious issues for astronomers not used to living at altitude.
難題 3：低溫、強風、高山症海拔近 4,000 公尺的高山上，日夜溫差可超過 10 度、甚至 20 度以上，還時時刮起像颱風天一樣強勁的陣風，加上因空氣稀薄、大氣壓力降低而帶來的種種不適，對原本欠缺高山生活經驗的研究人員來說，也是一大考驗。
