A Native Hawaiian Astrophysicist's Mana‘o on the Thirty Meter Telescope
Paul Coleman of the Institute Astronomy at the University of Hawai‘i at M#257;noa
By: Daniel Ikaika Ito

There are many Hawaiian voices being heard in opposition to the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) on Mauna Kea, but MANA also wants to hear a kanaka maoli’s perspective who supports the project in order to give you, our audience, a balanced view to make an educated and informed decision on your own. In light of the protests at the University of Hawai‘i campuses, we sat down with Paul Coleman, an astrophysicist for the Institute for Astronomy at the University of Hawai‘i at M#257;noa.

The 60-year-old Saint Louis School alumnus earned his bachelor’s of science degree from the University of Notre Dame and received his master's degree and doctorate in physics from the University of Pittsburgh. Coleman spent years traveling all over the world and doing research in the field of astronomy so that he could continue his work at home in Hawai‘i nei. He eventually made it back to the islands and, since then, the Native Hawaiian astrophysicist has spent numerous hours on Mauna Kea, staring at the same stars that his k#363;puna (ancestors) observed while also trying to look beyond those celestial beings to answer deeper, scientific questions. Fortunately, Coleman was willing to answer our inquiries about TMT, Mauna Kea and astronomy from a Hawaiian scientist’s perspective.
