Mauna Kea Observatories
The Mauna Kea Observatories are a collection of independent astronomical research facilities located near the summit of Mauna Kea on the island of Hawaii.
organizationCalifornia Association for Research in Astronomy
CARA, a partnership of Caltech and the University of California (with NASA as a partner), operates the W. M. Keck Observatory.
wavelength bandVisible light
Visible light is the band the human eye sees and the traditional domain of optical telescopes.
wavelength bandNear-infrared
The near-infrared bridges visible and thermal infrared light, key for studying the early universe and exoplanet atmospheres.
telescopeKeck I
Keck I is one of two 10-metre Keck telescopes on Mauna Kea, using a segmented primary mirror of 36 hexagonal segments.
telescopeKeck II
Keck II is the second 10-metre Keck telescope, used with adaptive optics for high-resolution near-infrared studies, including the Galactic Centre.
