Where on earth does this number come from? That's roughly eight times the annual operating cost for the Mauna Kea observatories.
Overall, the university brought in $430 million in research money this year, a 10% increase over the previous year. Syrmos said he's working to move that number closer to a half-billion in the next three to four years.
