Welcome to the UH
Hilo New Educational Telescope web
site!
Currently in development, the New Educational
Telescope is
aimed at
providing educational opportunities in astronomy for students
and residents of the State of Hawai'i‘i. The core of the facility is a
state-of-the-art
PlaneWave CDK700 0.7-meter telescope operated either remotely
or
robotically. Student-led research and educational projects will be
undertaken while our group is also planning to work
with local communities to enable
exciting opportunities for our keiki and citizen
scientists.
The New Educational Telescope soon promises to move astronomy
education forward in Hawai‘i!
