	We choose to go to the moon. We choose to go to the moon in this decade, and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because the challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win... ...Many years ago the great British explorer George Mallory, who was to die on Mount Everest, was asked why did he want to climb it. He said, "Because it is there." Well, space is there, and we're going to climb it, and the moon and the planets are there, and new hopes for knowledge and peace are there."   John Fitzgerald Kennedy  12 Sept, 1962

Hawaii Earthquakes
The USGS changed their quick and easy image of Hawaii Island Earthquakes to a sophisticated webpage. Nice work, but extra clicks to see what is happening...

World Earthquakes

Mauna Kea Webcams
Big Island of Hawaii

Watch for the guide star lasers at night

Gemini Dome - Mauna Kea - from CFHT	CFHT Dome - Mauna Kea - from Gemini
"Gemini" is the Gemini North Telescope - they have a twin in Chile At night - you may see "stars" - actually, most are "bad pixels" in the camera	CHFT is the "Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope" At night - you may see "stars" - actually, most are "bad pixels" in the camera
View from Mauna Kea - from UKIRT UKIRT is the "United Kingdom InfraRed Telescope"	Mauna Kea from NOAA Clean Air Station - Mauna Loa This is place where the Keeling Curve comes from!

The Sun - Driver of the Weather

The Sun - extreme UV - 171 ångström - 1,000,000 K Click the image to get the "multi frequency sun" page CCD Bakeout??? Not your backyard BBQ

The Sun - Continuum - about what it would look like Sunspots near the equator are Cycle 23 spots - farther North or South are new Cycle 24 spots What Does a Spotted Sun Look Like? (from 2001 - the last peak)

The sun according to STEREO - a pair of spacecraft "ahead" and"behind" the Earth's orbit,
to allow more of the sun to be seen. In the EUV at 195 ångström (similar to the SOHO image)

The Area around the sun - Watch for CME and Comets!
Sometimes Planets can be seen passing through the view. The random streaks are Cosmic Ray Strikes
Use the Sky Map at Fourmilab.ch to find out what planets are wandering through

Solar Flux -a measure of the energy coming to us from the sun,shows how active the sun is
A is a moving average of the K,
K is a measure of the Geomagnetic activity (a good aurora predictor!)

This section will slowly add more webcams to help with the understanding that the world is round, as well as "tilted"

Utqiaġvik (formerly called Barrow), Alaska - We (Ka'u) are the farthest South High School in the States of the USA - they (Barrow High School) are the farthest North Utqiaġvik is north of the Arctic Circle - look at the Ice on the Arctic Ocean! Watch it melt for the summer

One of the many ports to take you to Antarctica! Hobart is where many explorers headed south from, and returned to. Mawson had one end of his communication system just to the right and uphill from the bridge.
