Mauna Kea Observatory, Hawaii
Mauna Kea Observatory on Mauna Kea, Hawaii, USA. One of the two American Keck dome telecopes is on the right and the Japanese Subaru telescope is on the left. The shadow of Mauna Kea against the clouds is in the background. The Subaru telescope is a 8.3 metre optical-infrared telescope. The optical Keck telescope has a 10 metre diameter mirror, which can be used together with the other Keck telescope (not seen) to provide more detailed images. Mauna Kea is a dormant 4200 metre high volcano, which has several telescopes on its summit

EDITORS COMMENTS
This breathtaking print captures the awe-inspiring Mauna Kea Observatory in Hawaii, USA. Standing tall against a backdrop of clouds, the shadow of Mauna Kea sets the stage for an evening of astronomical wonders. On the right side, we see one of the two American Keck dome telescopes, while on the left stands the impressive Japanese Subaru telescope. The Subaru telescope is a remarkable 8.3-meter optical-infrared marvel that delves into distant corners of our universe. Its counterpart, though not visible in this image, is another Keck telescope with a massive 10-meter diameter mirror that joins forces to provide even more detailed images. Perched atop this dormant 4200-meter high volcano are several observatories dedicated to studying and unraveling celestial mysteries. As twilight descends upon Mauna Kea, these technological marvels come alive to explore realms beyond our reach. In this harmonious duo between America and Japan lies a testament to international collaboration in astrophysics research. Together, they push boundaries and expand our understanding of space through their state-of-the-art observation technology. This photograph from Science Photo Library invites us to contemplate humanity's insatiable curiosity about what lies beyond Earth's atmosphere as we gaze at this magnificent sight on Mauna Kea Volcano - where science meets nature's grandeur.
