Description
A photo of several telescopes on Mauna Kea in Hawaii. In the foreground is the Submillimeter Array, which is a telescope that observes in radio wavelengths (much like the Very Large Array in the movie Contact). Behind it center on the hill is Subaru, an 8-meter telescope built by the National Astronomical Observatories of Japan. Behind that is Keck 2 (not visible) using its orange adaptive optics laser. On the right is the Canada France Hawaii Telescope. The Milky Way galaxy can be seen arching behind Subaru and up towards the right.
