Discoveries using the telescopes on Mauna Kea

[TomK]

I find it amazing as well as a bit humorous that even the media confuses a picture/video taken from the SUMMIT of Mauna Kea as being from an actual telescope!

I'm not sure I have the same opinion. I know why you say it, but in the end, the general media knows as much about astronomy/telescopes/optics as a regular layperson. It's rare to read a good astronomy news story on a news site; they generally include too many mistakes and misinformation, and sometimes, they aren't apparent unless you're an astronomer, pro or amateur.

Are you referring to a specific article or making a general comment?
