Importance notification regarding visitor requests (tourists)
KHO is operated remotely through internet. That means we are not up there every day.
It takes approximately 30 minutes to drive by car in the summer season from Longyearbyen.
In the winter season we use a snow cat (bandwagon) that we have in a garage at Mine 7.
The reason is that the road from Mine 7 to KHO is blocked by snow.
A trip up in the winter time takes 30 minutes extra including personnel for safety and logistics.
In total that sums up to half a day work load for at least 2 persons to accommodate visitors to KHO.
As a consequence, we do not have the capacity to serve external, tourist based request for visits to the observatory.
It is also a cost issue. Sorry!
