Description
The Permanent All Sky Survey (PASS) is a project for a continuous
photometric survey of the entire celestial sphere with a high temporal
resolution. Its major objectives are the detection of all giant-planet
transits (with periods up to some weeks) across stars up to mag 10.5,
and the delivery of continuous time series photometry that is useful for
the study of any variable stars. For a southern instrument of PASS, Dome
C offers two major advantages over mid-latitude sites: lower noises and
greatly improved observational coverage. The simplicity of the
instrument should make it fairly easily adaptable to the extreme low
temperatures at that site.
