Honolulu: The project director of a new solar telescope in Hawaii who will be the most powerful in his kind expectations, scientists will be able to start observation in convenience in three months.
The Daniel Ke Inouye The solar telescope on the summit of the Halkala volcano on Mau was about to open the final decline. But Thomas Rimimel told Hawaii Public Radio on Wednesday that the Kovid -19 travel sanctions returned the construction on their important systems.
He hopes that the current schedule will not be affected by newly mounting coronvirus cases and any additional restrictions. Remele was hoping to return to Mau earlier this week.
“15 November is the one for which we are shooting. We had only a big review, the final construction review which was organized by National science foundation“Rimimel said.” (Scientists) are really eager to achieve their comments and data. ,
The telescope has received about 100 proposals from researchers for the initial observation window of two and a half months. Picing, which scientists have to go first, depends a lot on atmospheric conditions and what items appear on a given day.
He said that a quarter or fifth proposals can be approved for the first cycle.
He said, “We are extremely oversbuddled and people have to submit the proposal again for the next cycle,” he said. “It’s just how it works.”
National solar observatory Said that Inouye binoculars will be able to reveal the features that are able to see scientists, three times smaller than them. Sun currently.
In 2016, the Air Supreme Court confirmed a permit for the construction of solar telescope.
The following year, more than 100 protesters tried to move to a construction convoy to the binoculars, cited the sanctity of Halkala’s peak. Mau police then arrested six people.
Protest against another binoculars planned for a separate mountain and island – thirty meter binoculars at Mauna’s peak on Big Island – has prevented construction workers from working on that project.
