"Hawaii reality check. Here are the source publications -- NOT MADE IN HAWAII."
But wouldn't be possible without the telescopes in Hawaii that spend their operations money here, or all their staff living here, spending their wages in the local economy. You keep going on about the observatories allowing astronomers around the world to publish their discoveries, but that's exactly what observatories have always done, here and all over the world. It's what they are designed and built to do. They enable scientists to carry out their work and the money is spent in the local economies.
If all the astronomers around the world lived here, then who would teach physics, math, astronomy and other STEM subjects elsewhere?
