Both Perez and Wong-Wilson added that Halepohaku and the upper slopes of Maunakea are ecologically sensitive areas, and installing a telescope and thereby attracting more traffic to the mountain will threaten local ecosystems.

Interesting change of posture: "ecologically sensitive", not "sacred". Clearly the protest camp isn't in a "sensitive area" and/or "attracting more traffic". Because reasons.

The rendering is especially amusing -- they're objecting to something smaller than the existing buildings, on land that has already been disturbed.

What traffic?  The observatory is designed for use with remote controls.  If there are any wireless systems installed though watch out! The terror of 5G will be invoked.  Using their wireless social media  devices:


The educational telescope and remotely-operated dome, if constructed, will be available to UH students, faculty members and the community and is intended to replace the Hoku Kea telescope that is currently being decommissioned.

School officials say the new telescope will train students from across the UH system...

All of my local/hapa co-workers make fun of these idiots. The only one even remotely sympathetic is more concerned about hunting access than any of their made-up issues.

Stop suffering fools!
