Keck Observatory Open House 2011 Mauna Kea Telescopes Part 1

Sunday, July 24th, 2011

Today I visited the summit of Mauna Kea courtesy of the Keck Observatory.  It was the 2011 Keck Open House and I was fortunate enough to be invited by friend and Keck astronomer Julien Woillez. Julien is an interferometer scientist working on a project coordinating both Keck I and Keck II telescopes to create a virtual 85 millimeter telescope. Wow!
