View of the Gemini telescope dome on Mauna Kea
Gemini observatory dome. View of the dome of the unfinished Gemini observatory near the summit of Mauna Kea in Hawaii, USA. In the background (lower left) is the white dome of the Canada-France- Hawaii Telescope (CFHT). The Gemini observatory is being built under the supervision of the United States National Optical Astronomy Observatories (NOAO). It will eventually house a telescope with an 8 metre diameter mirror for observations in the thermal infrared range. A twin observatory is being built at Cerro Pathon, Chile, to view the southern celestial hemisphere. Photographed in 1998

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the awe-inspiring view of the Gemini telescope dome on Mauna Kea, located in Hawaii, USA. The image captures the unfinished Gemini observatory near the summit of Mauna Kea, a site renowned for its exceptional astronomical conditions. In the background, we can spot the distinctive white dome of the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), adding to the picturesque scene. Underneath the watchful eye of the United States National Optical Astronomy Observatories (NOAO), construction is underway for this groundbreaking observatory. Once completed, it will house a remarkable 8-meter diameter mirror telescope designed specifically for observations in the thermal infrared range. This cutting-edge technology promises to unlock new insights into our universe and expand our understanding of astrophysics. It is worth noting that a twin observatory is simultaneously being built at Cerro Pathon in Chile to explore and observe celestial phenomena from Earth's southern hemisphere. This ambitious endeavor demonstrates humanity's relentless pursuit of knowledge beyond borders. Captured in 1998 by Science Photo Library, this mesmerizing photograph encapsulates both scientific progress and natural beauty harmoniously intertwined atop Mauna Kea's majestic summit. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and curiosity about our place within an ever-expanding cosmos.
