Stock Photo Description: Mauna Kea is a dormant volcano in the Hawaiian Islands, one of five volcanic peaks that together form the Island of Hawaii. Mauna Kea means "white mountain" and is the tallest mountain in the world when measured from base to peak. The two domes on the right form the Mauna Kea Observatory, an institute of the University of Hawaii, considered one of the most important land-based observatories in the world for its isolated, unobstructed views of space without interference from man-made light sources. Other telescopes nearby are Keck, Gemini, Subaru, UKIRT, SMA and CFHT.
