Aloha John P.
Please google Keck observatory. It is NOT Mount Keck. Keck has a telescope on the mountain called Mauna Kea,on the island of Hawaii, also known as The Big Island. Many Hawaiians don’t like it up there, and would be upset hearing you call it Mount Keck, like they OWN the mountain. They don’t.
I see you plan to visit Hawaii soon! I hope you have a nice visit while here.
Oh, one more item, if I may. Your photo used in the story is not Keck’s observatory in Hawaii either, as the height to the top is about 14,000 ft, well ABOVE the tree line, and no trees grow that high up Mauna Kea, nor is it their office in the town called Waimea, also known as Kamuela.
