Really what are the chances that telescope relocates to another mountain? 25% ? Greater? There are some higher mountains in the Andes in the Chile or Peru area, why not there instead? I'm sure there already are many telescopes there already but maybe some of the Inca Indian old-timer residents are against more mountaintop telescopes there too. How about compromise here on our mountain? If this new telescope is that much better and is going to be able to see distant objects that the other ones already on Mauna Kea cannot see, how about take one down and build in that spot. No new area has to be desecrated. Why does there have to be so many telescopes in the first place? Why can't we just share one big one? Jeez, we human beings really seem like idjits sometimes.
