New Hawaiian Telescope Dedicated

Honolulu HI (SPX) Jul 07, 2006

Astronomers dedicated the University of Hawai'i's newest telescope, called PS1, last Friday in a ceremony on the summit of Haleakala, the massive extinct caldera on the island of Mau'i.

The telescope is a prototype for the larger Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System, or Pan-STARRS, telescope scheduled to start scanning the skies for "killer asteroids" in 2010.
