Thanks to Dr. Tom Kerr a group of us experienced an amazing evening on Mauna Kea... I will never forget the experience![Big Grin]

Yep. It's a great trip. The Subaru Telescope offers free tours by reservation too.

Very chilly up there.

It was unbelievably cold up there!!! I had to wear gloves and it was difficult to operate the camera, but we had the observatory to warm up in.

You aren't used to the cold, LOL! How lucky for you to get up there!

Yea, after 15 years in Chicago you would think a little chilly weather would not bother me eh? My blood is thinning. It was 32 degrees and a wind chill factor bringing it close to zero. It was quite a trick to operate my camera with gloves on!
