I believe that this site is also known as Dome C. It has been identified as, thus far, a unique site on the planet with excellent seeing conditions. Seeing conditions are reported to be 2.5 times better than at the existing best observatory sites.

For further information please see

There are some comparitive images of star fields from this site compared to a mid-latitude site.
