Details for experts
meteoblue estimates the seeing with two models on a scale from 1 (poor) to 5 (excellent); index 2 weighs density fluctuations more, so it reacts to the flicker of turbulent air. The figure in arcseconds combines both with the "bad layers", the turbulent layers found in the vertical profile. The jet stream is the wind at about 10 km.

Inside the dome
A small camera inside the dome takes one picture every few minutes: the telescope, the shutter and, when it is open, the sky above. No live stream, no sound; at night the dome is dark.
