Abstract

The first site testing campaigns started at Dome C during the summer season 2000–2001. Since then, each further summer has been exploited, as well as the first three winter seasons permitted by the opening of the Concordia station in 2005. Many of the astronomical site properties begin now to be well known, although some more still need to be adressed and more statistics is obviously required.
