King Kalakaua:
“It will afford me unfeigned satisfaction if my kingdom can add its quota toward the successful accomplishment of the most important astronomical observation of the present century and assist, however humbly, the enlightened nations of the earth in these costly enterprises…”
-as quoted in the Pacific Commercial Advertiser, upon arrival of a British expedition of astronomers to Hawaii

Punamauka2, wouldn't this be a great leading story in HTH?
