On Tuesday, May 6th, activists Pua Chase and Kapulie Flores held a discussion and participated in the screening of the documentary film “Standing Above the Clouds”, directed by Jalena Keane-Lee, at the Isla Vista Theater. The event, attended by students, educators, and community members, follows Native Hawaiian families and mother-and-daughter activists, including Chase and Flores, in their fight against the construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna Kea, a sacred mountain in Hawaii. The UCSB Walter H. Capps Center for the Study of Ethics, Religion, and Public Life organized the event. Greg Johnson, the center's director, hosted it. KCSB's Mavis Holley has the story.

Today we'll find out what's the latest on the Thirty Meter Telescope. We'll talk with representatives of the TMT to learn what progress has been made and how public sentiment has evolved.

Standing Above the Clouds – Picture of Activists On today's show, I'll speak to filmmaker Jalena Keane-Lee about her documentary “Standing Above the Clouds”.  This is the ongoing story about the fight against the construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna Kea in Hawai'i. “Standing Above the Clouds was created through a collaborative process with our film protagonists. Through making this film, our team aimed to re-imagine the documentary form to be a healing process that returned agency to the community featured in our film through a trauma informed practice of affirmative consent. We worked closely with our onscreen collaborators at every step of the process and have taken great care to mitigate any legal, emotional, or cultural harm that releasing a film might cause. It is our team's great privilege and honor to have been invited into the Mauna Kea protector community and into the lives and homes of the families you see in our film.” ~ Jalena Keane-Lee (director, cinematographer, producer) The film is an intimate journey through the women's lives both on and off the mountain.  It explores the physical and emotional toll of sustaining a grassroots movement. After nine months of living on the mountain, it gifts each woman with hope, strength and the understanding that victory is in standing in unity for sacred places where healing occurs through the sisterhood they have created along the way.

Welcome to the Big Glass Wars! That's right, just when you thought you'd heard it all, turns out there's hot competition among a few countries to stay on the cutting edge of optical astronomy, and to do that, you need a great big hunk of glass to gather light from distant galaxies and stellar systems. Enter the Carnegie Observatories and their partners on the Thirty Meter Telescope and the Giant Magellan Telescope. Both are currently under construction, and both are threatened by budget parsimony from the U.S. Congress. Dr. John Mulchaey, Director of the Carnegie Observatories, joins us to discuss what's happening, why it matters, and what you can do to help maintain U.S. leadership in astronomy, cosmology, and other STEM-related fields. Headlines: Boeing's Starliner launch to the ISS delayed again, this time due to a helium leak in the service module. The launch is now targeted for no earlier than May 21st. Blue Origin plans to conduct its first crewed suborbital flight since August 2022 on May 19th, carrying six passengers including the first Black astronaut candidate Ed Dwight. A massive sunspot caused spectacular auroras visible as far south as Alabama and turned skies purple and orange. More solar activity is expected as another large sunspot emerges. Main Topic: The Big Glass Wars with Dr. John Mulchaey Dr. Mulchaey provides an overview of the Carnegie Observatories, founded in 1904, and their historic telescopes at Mount Wilson that helped launch modern astronomy. He discusses the need for extremely large next-generation ground-based telescopes, the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT) and Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT), to study earth-like exoplanets and the early universe. These ambitious segmented mirror telescopes will be 5-10 times larger than today's biggest telescopes and cost billions of dollars to construct. While substantial private funding has been raised, the projects need investment from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and the U.S. government to be completed. However, the NSF has proposed only partial funding. Dr. Mulchaey emphasizes the importance of the U.S. having both telescope projects to provide full-sky coverage, double the observation time, and maintain the nation's leadership in astronomy research or risk losing top talent to competing projects in Europe and China. He notes that delaying a decision on full funding is causing the estimated costs to escalate as the projects are forced to wait. Dr. Mulchaey argues passionately that inspiring the next generation of scientists and engineers by investing in these telescopes is critical for the country's future productivity and innovation.

Jason Momoa personal life.He first meets his fiancée, Simmone Jade Mackinnon, on the set of Baywatch in 1999. They enjoy six years together and become engaged in 2004. However, the engagement is called off when he starts a relationship with actress Lisa Bonet in 2005. Contrary to popular belief, he and Lisa Bonet don't actually marry until October 2017, even though they have two children together—Lola Iolani, born in July 2007, and Nakoa-Wolf Manakauapo Namakaeha, born in December 2008. In January 2022, he and Bonet publicly announce their split.To prepare for roles, he often takes them to heart. He learns martial arts for his character Ronon in Stargate Atlantis. In 2017, he starts practicing Brazilian jiu-jitsu.He has a deep passion for heavy metal music and often says that he builds his characters based on metal songs. Notably, members of the metal band Archspire make cameo appearances in his TV series See, where he also trains with the band's vocalist, Oli Peters, to perfect his screaming technique for a significant scene. In 2020, he even features in the song "Doom" by the black metal band Scour.He's not just about acting and music; he's a hobby musician himself. He plays various instruments like the bass guitar, mandolin, ukulele, and guitar, the first of which he picks up after being inspired by Tool's song "Sober."His body tells a story too. He has numerous tattoos, including a half-sleeve on his left forearm, a tribute to his family god, or "aumakua."He also holds strong beliefs and isn't afraid to stand up for them. He participates in protests against the building of the Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna Kea, which is a holy spiritual site for native Hawaiians.But life hasn't always been smooth sailing. On November 15, 2008, he sustains a facial scar when he is slashed across the face with a broken beer glass during an altercation at Birds Cafe, a tavern in Hollywood. He undergoes reconstructive surgery, receiving approximately 140 stitches, and the assailant is later sentenced to five years in prison for the attack. The scar remains, adding a unique touch to his later work.

Featuring a discussion with experts Samantha Thompson and Kalewa Correa from the Smithsonian Institution, this episode is about the history of Hawai'i and the controversy surrounding the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT). The TMT Corporation's Board of Directors selected Maunakea as its preferred site in 2009. The 2014 groundbreaking for the TMT site was met with fierce, but peaceful, opposition by Native Hawaiians and environmentalists for whom the mountain is both a sacred religious and cultural site, as well as home to rare species. Disagreements manifested at the mountain where protectors of Maunakea assembled to block the road and in the courts where they halted the project through legal proceedings. The Supreme Court of Hawai'i halted the project until 2018, at which point  protectors once again assembled and delayed construction. In the media, the battle over Maunakea and the Thirty Meter Telescope was often portrayed as a conflict between science and religion, but as our guests point out, that is not the case. This episode contextualizes the battle as part of a larger history of science, colonization, and the sovereignty of Native Hawaiians.

Hawaii County's police chief is planning to retire later this year. Police Chief Paul Ferreira confirmed that he will be retiring in the fall. “Confirming that I did inform the Hawaii Police Commission and Mayor Roth on Friday that I submitted my application to the State Employee's Retirements System (ERS) to be effective September 1, 2022,” Ferreira said, in a statement sent to Hawaii News Now. Ferreira was named police chief in 2016. During his tenure, he led the police department through significant events, from the Kilauea eruption to the Thirty Meter Telescope protests to the coronavirus pandemic.

Debates about science and religion are rarely out of the news. Whether it concerns what's being taught in schools, clashes between religious values and medical recommendations, or questions about how to address our changing global environment, emotions often run high and answers seem intractable. Yet there is much more to science and religion than the clash of extremes.  As Thomas Dixon and Adam Shapiro show in Science and Religion: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford UP, 2022), a whole range of views, subtle arguments, and fascinating perspectives can be found on this complex and centuries-old subject. They explore the key philosophical questions that underlie the debate, but also highlight the social, political, and ethical contexts that have made the tensions between science and religion such a fraught and interesting topic in the modern world. In this new edition, Dixon and Shapiro connect historical concepts such as evolution, the heliocentric solar system, and the problem of evil to present-day issues including the politicization of science; debates over mind, body, and identity; and the moral necessity of addressing environmental change. Ranging from medical missionaries to congregations adopting new technologies during a pandemic, from Galileo's astronomy to building the Thirty Meter Telescope, they explore how some of the most complex social issues of our day are rooted in discussions of science and religion. Adam R. Shapiro is a historian of science and religion. He taught at universities in the U.S., Canada and the U.K. for over a decade before accepting a AAAS Science and Technology Policy Fellowship and shifting to work in public policy and science communication. He is the author of Trying Biology: The Scopes Trial, Textbooks, and the Antievolution Movement in American Schools (2013) as well as several articles on science and religion from the late eighteenth to the twenty-first centuries.

Debates about science and religion are rarely out of the news. Whether it concerns what's being taught in schools, clashes between religious values and medical recommendations, or questions about how to address our changing global environment, emotions often run high and answers seem intractable. Yet there is much more to science and religion than the clash of extremes.  As Thomas Dixon and Adam Shapiro show in Science and Religion: A Very Short Introduction (Oxford UP, 2022), a whole range of views, subtle arguments, and fascinating perspectives can be found on this complex and centuries-old subject. They explore the key philosophical questions that underlie the debate, but also highlight the social, political, and ethical contexts that have made the tensions between science and religion such a fraught and interesting topic in the modern world. In this new edition, Dixon and Shapiro connect historical concepts such as evolution, the heliocentric solar system, and the problem of evil to present-day issues including the politicization of science; debates over mind, body, and identity; and the moral necessity of addressing environmental change. Ranging from medical missionaries to congregations adopting new technologies during a pandemic, from Galileo's astronomy to building the Thirty Meter Telescope, they explore how some of the most complex social issues of our day are rooted in discussions of science and religion.

Lucky thirteen! In this installment, we move forward in the Immortal Eyes chronicle, Shadows on the Hill, following the protagonist oathmates to their next adventure in Hawaiʻi. Like the previous book, The Toybox, the storyline (and included adventures) of the Immortal Eyes is kind of ancillary to the setting details laid out here. We found this one somewhat richer overall, with a lot of material that could be used for games set in the islands, with the caveat that one should always use discretion and do some additional research before taking everything in these pages for granted. (Disclaimer: we're both white folks with limited knowledge of the setting and culture.) But even if you don't use the book as intended, it has many beautiful passages and lots of bits that you might want to incorporate into a chronicle of your own. File under "not strictly necessary to buy, but a nice addition to the collection," if that's a label you're keen to use. in the beginning... There's a passage describing the creation of the Hawaiʻian island chain that Pooka mentions reminds them of the intro to the first Civilization computer game. For the sake of a visual aid, and to do a throwback to a game even older than Changeling: the Dreaming, here's the video. It doesn't have quite the same power when the tinny Sound Blaster music isn't piping out of your cheap speakers, but you get the idea. (Pooka will not be taking questions on how many hours they've wasted playing the games in this series, so you'll just have to guess.) ... sacred sites and science One of the secondary antagonists in the book's first adventure is an Autumn Person geologist, Jennifer Friedman, whose character is not really developed beyond that description. She's mentioned as part of a group of tourists who are depleting the mana from the land, as part of an ongoing framing of mana as Glamour specifically infused with the notion of being a dream of the land, an idea of the people, and the relationship between the two. While that concept of mana is an intriguing one, the use of this geologist in relation to it just seems too easy—another foray in the anti-science mentality that crops up regularly in 1st edition. The issue of science intruding on culture is a longstanding one in Hawaiʻi, with the Thirty Meter Telescope protests being the most recent and high-profile conflict. (Note: the protests were erroneously referred to in the episode as taking place on Mauna Loa; they are actually on Mauna Kea.) Changeling has always been a game with the capacity to responsibly explore political issues like this, and if a group wants to engage with heritage and tradition in relation to land use and rights, this is a possible situation to address. On the other hand, the technical knowledge gained about how the planet works can be just as Glamour-inspiring for some, not to mention life-saving for others. That's part of why the character of Dr. Friedman as a throwaway line is so frustrating: she's a one-dimensional foil to the characters. We don't dispute the book's foregrounding of Hawaiʻi as a spiritual landscape first, but if you choose to have a scientist as a villain, at least make them more interesting than being just another Autumn Person. If they're going to disrespect the land to give players a reason to stand against them, they should have some kind of reason for it. This goes for other similar cases as well. All around the world are places and moments where passionate belief is challenged by thirst for data. You can certainly have unabashedly corrupt foes—Pentex and their local branch, Big Fruit, spring to mind—but we recommend giving you and your group the space to get more complex here, because the game allows you to. The nature of Glamour and Banality is a theme we keep returning to; when the stakes are the well-being of entire groups of people, the question of what each of those forces means to people becomes all the more urgent. ... hot tub satyr machine That was a pretty serious topic in the last section. For a bit of whimsy to counterbalance it, here's the hot tub picture from page 124 that Josh found weird and uncomfortable: It's really the satyr's face that does it. The longer you look at it, the more uncomfortable it gets. ... a few resources The book that Pooka mentioned finding at the local bookmonger was the second volume of the Nānā i ke Kumu series. The first two were published in the 1970s as a joint venture between the University of Hawaiʻi at Manoa and local community leaders/organizations. They cover all manner of legend, folktale, custom, and religious belief over the course of hundreds of pages; a third volume, published in 2020, covers more modern social problems from a cultural context. You can find more information/purchase the books at the press website, or (if you want) use a certain rapacious corporation's website instead. Such a collection is valuable for creating verisimilitude in your game—there are plenty of stories, practices, and kapu that you can search through to flesh out a Hawaiʻian setting—but also just for self-education. And if you want some cool information about the mindboggling navigational practices that got the Menehune and their people to Hawaiʻi in the first place, check out this page from the university on techniques (see the sidebar for links to specific traditional tools), and this article from the BBC last year about the Hōkūleʻa, a traditionally-built canoe that was sailed using those techniques across the Pacific in 1976. The canoe's voyage demonstrated that the voyages of the ancient Polynesians were entirely possible, creating a sense of renewed pride and interest in the history of seafaring. Pretty astounding stuff that can make for an interesting sidebar in a chronicle set on the seas. (Some of this also pops up in Mage's Dead Magic II, within a WoD-context.) ... promo card note In a misalignment of circumstance, Pooka did not take a picture of the promo card for the Arcadia: the Wyld Hunt CCG they have in the back of their copy of IE2 before departing for overseas voyages. And now, as the episode goes live, they are thousands of miles away from said book. Luckily, the In Arcadia blog has a write-up of the phenomenon, and an image handy as you please: It's unlikely that this is still valid, right? Still, if we can get our hands on more cards, maybe an episode about the CCG will make an appearance in the future... ... your hosts Josh Hillerup (he/him) tasted of the forbidden fruit, and found it resembled persimmon with a hint of cardamom. Pooka G (any pronoun/they) is in terrible need of pastries most hours of the day. ... "Ukuliʻi ka pua, onaona i ka mauʻu." (Tiny is the flower, yet it scents the grasses around it.) —Hawaiʻian proverb cited by Serge Kahili King (psst! email us at podcast@changelingthepodcast.com if you want) (and join our Discord at https://discord.gg/SAryjXGm5j !)

In this episode, Larissa and Dr. Uahikea Maile pick up where they left off in the previous episode, and discuss the failures of state-centred Indigenous (re)conciliation and what needs to change in order for Indigenous rights and sovereignty to be recognized. They speak about how state-centred acts of (re)conciliation perpetuate Eurocentric understands of Indigenous life, violence, and genocide, which ultimately conceal ongoing acts of colonialism and neglect to acknowledge Indigenous-led, bottom-up approaches to healing. Using Canada, Dr. Maile shows how Canadian institutions and rules are steeped in colonialism, and thus, pushing to the forefront Indigenous sovereignty necessitates fundamental restructuring of legal and political institutions.

In this episode, Larissa interviews Dr. Uahikea Maile - a Kanaka Maoli Indigenous Hawaiian who is a professor of Indigenous politics at the University of Toronto, as well as an activist. They discuss Indigenous sovereignty and settler colonialism through the lens of the Thirty Meter Telescope project in Hawaii, which aims to build a telescope on the top of Mauna Kea - a sacred mountain to Indigenous Hawaiians and part of un-ceded national Hawaiian lands. Larissa and Dr. Maile also talk about how colonialism exists and is reinforced through state and educational institutions, both of which are contributing massive funds for the Thirty Meter Telescope project. Drawing on the annexation of Hawaii and its stolen lands, Dr. Maile also speaks about how settler science is a form of techno-scientific conquest and a continuation of colonialism.

In 2009, a cluster of academic institutions led by the University of California announced plans to go where no one had ever gone before: 13 billion years into the past. The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) was to be the most powerful visible light telescope ever built, opening up an unprecedented pathway to outer space. The project captured the imaginations – and wallets – of philanthropists, scientists and researchers around the world. But not everyone was smitten with the TMT. When Mauna Kea, the most sacred mountain in Native Hawaiian culture was announced as its location, Native Hawaiians protested. Students joined them upon discovering the UC's involvement – especially that of UCSB's chancellor, Henry Yang. Nearly 15 years later, where does the TMT stand? The Daily Nexus' lead news editor, Max Abrams, joins us on the inaugural episode of “Hot Off The Pod” to discuss.

Warrior Rising was written by Hāwanes mom Pua Case in 2015. These are her words and reflections on how this song came to be - “Every night while we were stood on the frontlines to protect Mauna Kea, Iʻd leave my window open in Waimea and pray to the mountain and to the guardians of the mountain to keep our people safe, these warriors that were rising to stand for what was necessary in this time. Iʻd close my eyes thinking of both my daughters who spent nights up there in the cold along with many others. And throughout each night a line from the song would fly in through the window gliding in on the melody straight to my ear and my heart until the entire song was complete. Before Hāwane sang it for the public, we went up to the Northern Plateau, the site of the proposed Thirty Meter Telescope and I sang it outloud to the grandmother of the mountain in gratitude and aloha. What started as a tribute to my daughters for the warriors they were becoming, became an anthem for all warriors rising to stand for Hawaiʻi.”

Kealoha Wong is the perfect guy to talk to about TMT and Mauna Kea right now. Wong graduated from M.I.T. with a degree in Nuclear Engineering and is currently Hawaii's first and only Poet Laureate who just performed a "work in progress" poem at his monthly slam poetry event (First Thursdays) at Hawaiian Brian's a few weeks ago tentatively called "A Poem for Mauna Kea"-- well, we break it the fuck down in this episode of #RatedHR. Wong's mind for science and his jenga-like skills for word placement make this epic new poem a perfect gateway drug into a really short hour and a half deep dive conversation, discussing the hot hot hot topic of the Thirty Meter Telescope and Mauna Kea, which then obviously forced us to discuss Lakers vs. Clippers and Public School vs. Private School vs. Home school and whether or not we will ever see a Chinese in the White House, hashtag Big Yang theory. Sit down. Relax. Put your feet up. Enjoy. Wake up. STAY WOKE. Find your Happy Ending. Go to hawaiianryan.com for more episodes of #RatedHR

Former Hawaii County Mayor Billy Kenoi talks with host Sherry Bracken about dealing with the pandemic, the mayor job and what the next Mayor (who could be elected in August) will need to do, what government should be counted on as the pandemic recovery begins, and his now-changed views about Thirty Meter Telescope.  In Part 2, airing July 5, Mayor Kenoi shares more about the Mayor job, and shares intimate details about his health challenges in recent years and how he's faced them, including with support from his wife Takako, to whom he gives a heartfelt tribute.

The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) is a next-generation observatory currently under development that has created a watershed moment for the scientific community and Hawaiian society. This is because of its planned location on Mauna Kea… the most sacred mountain in the Hawaiian religion. But the case of TMT and Mauna Kea is not an outlier because mountain summits often have profound meanings to both indigenous cultural practitioners and technology developers. For example, Kanamota is another sacred mountain that is the site of technological development. It's also known as Mount Saint Helena. Ian Garrett is the co-founder and director of the Center for Sustainable Practice in the Arts (CSPA) and an Associate Professor of Ecological Design for Performance at York University. He's collaborating with indigenous communities to understand and express how contested spaces are experienced through virtual reality. In this second installment of Starstruck, we talk with him about his ongoing collaborations with indigenous communities and explore the use of diminished reality to make the observatories on Mauna Kea disappear.

Today is the 127 anniversary of what many Hawaiians consider to be an "illegal occupation" of their lands.  On Jan. 17, 1893, Queen Lili`uokalani of the independent kingdom of Hawai`i was overthrown as she was arrested at gunpoint by U.S. Marines. Native Hawaiians say they are now fighting to stop the construction Thirty Meter Telescope on sacred Mauna Kea. As Patrick Wolfe theorized, "settler colonialism is a structure, not an event. The violence of colonialism — and the fight for Indigenous sovereignty — continue.

The history of astronomy is a history of receding horizons. As we improve our optics, our instruments, and our observing techniques, we can reveal progressively more of the Universe than we've ever seen before. As the 2020s dawn on us, we're preparing to jump from 10 meter-class observatories, which are presently the largest in ground-based optical telescopes, to 30 meter-class ones, with approximately thrice the resolution and ten times the light-gathering power. There's a tremendous suite of cosmic stories to discover, but the only one of the 30 meter-class observatories to be built in the Northern Hemisphere is facing a tremendous controversy that's been decades in the making. What are the next steps towards building the Thirty Meter Telescope? The latest edition of the Starts With A Bang Podcast features the TMT's vice president for external relations, Dr. Gordon Squires, and you won't want to miss it!

The road to Hawaii’s Mauna Kea is open for the first time since July. Backers of the Thirty Meter Telescope say they’re putting off plans for the $1.6 billion project for at least the next two months. Officials withdrew any law enforcement presence that has been in place since opponents of the project blocked the road prevent construction crews from reaching the top of the sacred mountain. Opponents of the project say they have time now to switch focus to providing a more permanent solution. We’ll get an update on the on-going fight over construction of the new telescope on Mauna Kea.

In Ep. 90, "How Western Media's False Binary Between 'Science' & Indigenous Rights Erases Native People," we explored the ways capital-S "Science" has been wielded by those in power to erase Native people and culture around the world. Our discussion of the Thirty Meter Telescope "controversy" at Mauna Kea in Hawai'i drew much online debate but instead of talking about the activists there, we thought we'd talk to them––specifically those running the Puʻuhonua o Puʻuhuluhulu movement media team, Nā Leo Kākoʻo, who are working 24/7 to push back against colonialist narratives and hacky, racist local reporting. We are joined by Mikey Inouye, a filmmaker and co-chair of the Honolulu branch of Democratic Socialists of America, and Ilima Long, media coordinator for Nā Leo Kāko‘o and member of Huli, a non-violent, direct action organization that is one of the leaders on Mauna Kea.

For Native Hawaiians, Mauna Kea is the sacred center of the island: a place of worship, a portal to the ancestral realm and celestial home to Hawaiian deities. Mauna Kea is also a dormant volcano and although most of the volcano is underwater, at 33,500 feet, it is the tallest mountain in the world when measured from its underwater base. Unprecedented views of deep space and cosmic objects, clear skies and easy access to the mountaintop means that it has become a prime target for monied interests and astronomers. The Thirty Meter Telescope, or TMT, is one of them. TMT is a $1.4 billion project would be the largest visible-light telescope designed and developed by partnerships in the United States, Japan, China, India and Canada and includes universities like the University of California and is largely funded by the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation. There are already 13 observatories on the mountain-- the construction and maintenance of which have already contributed to more traffic, sewage and chemical spills, pollution, and the disruption of cultural and religious practices. Another telescope, this one more massive than the existing ones, funded primarily by foreign corporations and institutions, is one that has echoed the violent displacement of Hawaiians and the taking of land during colonial times. The struggle over Mauna Kea is decades long. In 1950, Mauna Kea was part of lands ceded as part of a land trust with Native Hawaiians. So, there is also a long history of not only protecting and defending sacred land, but also fighting for Native Hawaiian sovereignty. In 2015, Mauna Kea protectors the procedural issue of whether the permit for the TMT's construction comported with due process. In 2018, the Supreme Court of Hawaii ruled that the telescope construction permit was valid. And since July of 2019, and now for approximately 3 months, protectors have peacefully resisted the construction of the TMT. A reported 35 elders were arrested on the third day of protecting the sacred mountain. Frontline and longtime protectors have inspired action from Mauna Kea to New York City. From the APF Radio archives, you'll hear an excerpt with Pualani Case discussing the call to action to protect sacred land and water. Audio from a Mauna Kea rally at Union Square in New York and discussion with Joanna Pruett a massage therapist and reiki healer, who, inspired by Pualani Case and other protectors, organized her first rally alongside indigenous communities and supporters in New York City and has since organized a series of actions throughout the city as an act of solidarity to the Mauna Kea protectors and across indigenous struggles. GUESTS: Joanna Pruett, Massage therapist, reiki practitioner and Native-Hawaiian-Chinese woman living in New York answering the call to protect Mauna Kea.

A new multi-part series from Undivided Nation titled, "Strangling Hands Upon a Nation's Throat," takes a look into how Hawaii became America's 50th state. The title for our series comes from an 1897 newspaper article that told the vivid, firsthand account of the Hawaiian people's opposition to annexation by the United States of America. The story of the 1893 coup d'état of the government of the Kingdom of Hawaii and Queen Liliʻuokalani by a group of local businessmen backed by the U.S. Foreign Minister and a force of 120 US Marines will leave you on the edge of your seat. Join us on this series as we uncover a largely hidden past in search of truth and justice. This series will help many non-Hawaiians understand the situation in Hawaii today, especially as it relates to the opposition to the protests against the Thirty Meter Telescope on Mauna Kea.

Kanaka Maoli and their allies are entering their fifth week of demonstrations to prevent construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope in Hawaii. They’re determined to stop further desecration of the sacred Mauna Kea. It’s the latest high profile effort to protect sacred places around the country. Others include the Blackfeet Tribe’s renewed defense of Badger Two Medicine in Montana against the reopening of oil and gas development plans. We’ll check in with some of the notable efforts to protect sacred places across Native America.

Un nuovo, potentissimo telescopio sul Monte Mauna Kea, alle isole Hawaii. All'avvio dei lavori, le proteste della popolazione si sono riaccese

The world's eyes are on Mauna Kea and the battle over the Thirty Meter Telescope, but newspaper headlines and social media clicks only tell part of the story. To try and gain a deeper understanding, Josh sat down with dear friend of the show Kumu Hans Keoni Wilhelm, PhD, who teaches Hawaiian language, history, and culture at Kamehameha Schools. We were also joined by two of Kumu Hans' amazing former students, Tiana Kuni and Max Mukai, who shared their stories and perspectives with us. (Tiana recently returned from Pu'uhonua o Pu'uhuluhulu, and Max headed there shortly after our recording). We discuss the false narrative of "science vs. religion," what it truly means for something to be "sacred," how this inspiring movement is about so much more than "just a telescope," and why everyone who cares about the future of Hawaii -- Kanaka and non-Kanaka alike -- should take a stand. Please listen, share, and keep the conversation going! #KuKiaiMauna #AoleTMT (Recorded while emergency proclamation was still in effect, post-Dwayne The RockJohnson but pre- Damian Marley)

I was honored to have Shalee Kekawa, Pomaika’i Halemano and Kumu Mikilani Young on the show to discuss the ongoing battle that the native people of Hawai’i are going through to keep their sacred land of Mauna Kea from being desecrated by a project plan to build a Thirty Meter Telescope on the mountain. Listen in to hear the details and find out how you can show support and help!

Alaska faces severe budget cuts that significantly affect higher education, social services, and public safety, especially in rural villages. We'll get an update on efforts to both prepare for and halt the budget vetoes taking effect. A Navajo man is making a bid for the 2020 presidential race. His platform includes re-writing the constitution. Also authorities continue to clash with protesters in Hawai’i over the pending construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope.

This week, we feature two segments on the episode. First, a brief chat with Duncan of Perilous Chronicle, a site documenting prisoner resistance since from 2010 til today in the so-called U.S. & Canada. More on that project can be found at perilouschronicle.com and you can find them on twitter as @perilousprisons. Then, we spoke with Kanahus Freedom, from the Secwepemc  and Ktunaxa nations, who is involved in the Tiny House Warriors struggle against the Trans Mountain Pipeline threatening the sovereignty and health of unceded Secwepemc land. Kanahus is also decolonization activist and a mother. We talk about birthing and parenting outside of the scope of Canadian colonial government, the role of construction “man camps” in genocide, and how to help struggle against TMX. You can learn more about her imprisoned husband Orlando Watley (Elk Bone) by visiting https://freeorlandowatley.org/, as well as a video of Elk Bone and Kanahus's wedding in prison. You can learn more about the case that her twin sister, Mayuk, and others are facing and more by visiting their nations website, https://www.secwepemculecw.org/ Kanahus also contributed the essay "Decolonization: The frontline struggle" to the book "Whose Land Is It Anyway: A Manual for Decolonization." Here is Kanahus reading the words of her father, Art Manuel, in marking 150 years of resistance to the Canadian state. The Trans Mountain Pipeline (TMX) will play a role in the wider genocide of indigenous people through the proliferation of so-called "Man Camps" as well as destroying the integrity and health of indigenous health. Some of these topics are touched on in the recently published Final Report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls (MMIWG). The pipeline is now being pushed through by the Canadian Government of Justin Trudeau, announced within a week of the widely publicized Final Report located above. Announcements Sean Swain Anarchist prisoner Sean Swain recently got most of his items sent to him (albeit many damaged) from the jailers in Ohio where he was held for most of the last 28 years, which is a partial success. He still hasn't gotten the items he's bought and paid for on the JPay digital account that handles his emails, and other digital media. So, if you used to email with Sean and haven't heard from him for a while, check out his website for his current number and drop him a line as he likely doesn't have your address or past messages anymore, until people pressure JPay to transfer property from his old JPay account number to his new number. This includes nearly $1,000 in digital music, purchased and held online in a way similar to purchasing online from Apple music, only from this company that profits from prisoners and their loved ones. Also, anyone writing to Sean Swain should know that the Virginia rules for snail mail say that he can only receive up to 3 pages front and back (whether letters or photocopies) in an envelope, so if you've been writing him and getting mail turned back, consider sending more envelopes full of smaller letters! Protect Mauna Kea You may have recently seen news coverage of protesters, largely Indigenous and elder, opposing the construction of a Thirty Meter Telescope, or TMT, on Mauna Kea, a mountain on the Big Island of occupied Hawaii. This mountain is over a million years old and, when measured from its underwater base, is the tallest mountain on the planet. The university of California and University of Hawaii are currently attempting to build this TMT on the land, and Indigenous people along with students of both universities have been resisting this and similar efforts. This is just one instance in the long project of settler colonialism, 14 telescopes have been built on the Mauna from the years 1968 and 2002, efforts which have threatened the stability of the ecosystem and harmed a place of great spiritual significance for the Indigenous people of Hawaii. The people were not consulted in any part of this development process and have been resisting these construction efforts at every point from the earliest days. The most recent of these, the TMT, would dig a total of 7 stories down into the mountain, contaminating a sacred water source and disturbing the burial places of countless people. The current efforts against the TMT are already being likened to the resistance at Standing Rock, and over a dozen people have already been arrested by cops protecting the interests of the state and the university. As it stands now, it was stated that construction on the TMT would begin, and the Governor of Hawaii has declared a so called “state of emergency” in response to the defense of the mountain. Extra police and National Guard have been brought to the mountain to attempt to quell this resistance. Now more than ever, solidarity with those fighting for their sacred lands is paramount!

Officials behind the controversial Thirty Meter Telescope are pushing ahead with construction on Mauna Kea despite continued opposition. Native Hawaiians oppose the $1.4 billion project because they say it further desecrates the sacred mountain. The plan was buffeted by legal and political challenges for the past 16 years. The state Supreme Court ruled in the telescope organizers’ favor last October. Protesters successfully delayed the start of construction of the major telescope in 2015. Opponents promise sizable and long-term acts of civil disobedience again. State officials say they are prepared for protests.

The largest ground-based telescope is now being built on the top of Mauna Kea in Hawaii. The Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) is a new class of extremely large telescopes that will allow us to see deeper into space and observe cosmic objects with unprecedented sensitivity. The TMT International Observatory LLC (TIO), a non-profit organization, was established in May 2014 to carry out the construction and operation phases of the TMT Project.

MIT researchers: Lasers could send bat signal to aliens Article link: https://www.cnet.com/news/mit-researchers-lasers-could-send-bat-signal-to-alien-astronomers/ A new study out of MIT suggests leaving the light on for aliens to find us, literally. A new study out of MIT proposes using a high-powered laser to send a signal into space that could stand out from the massive energy of our sun and basically announce "we're here!" to anyone who might happen to be looking.  Author James Clark, a graduate student in MIT's Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics, said in a statement this week. "I don't know if intelligent creatures around the sun would be their first guess, but it would certainly attract further attention."   The research came out Monday in The Astrophysical Journal. It suggests that a 1- to 2-megawatt laser could be pointed through the mirrors of a massive telescope -- like the controversial Thirty Meter Telescope planned for Hawaii -- and shot into space to produce a planetary-scale lighthouse. it could potentially be used as a means of sending brief messages via pulses like Morse code, Clark said.   Not everyone agrees that building a laser-powered universal beacon for all of human civilization is a good idea. Famed cosmologist Stephen Hawking famously warned that we should be wary of advanced alien civilizations on habitable exoplanets.

To study the heavens, it's all about the photons. "We in astronomy are always greedy. We want every photon we can collect." Drew Phillips, astronomer at University of California Observatories. More photons, he says, basically means more science about incredibly faint, distant objects.And that's where the optics problem comes in. Because incoming light reflects off several mirrors before it comes out the business end of a telescope. And mirrors aren't perfectly reflective. The traditional mirror coating, aluminum, reflects only about 90 percent of light. Bounce that light around a few times in a telescope, and you lose valuable photons."The throughput, the actual number of photons that are detected in the end in a modern spectrograph, you're doing good if you get thirty percent."So you want the most reflective material for your mirrors. Like silver, which reflects 97 to 99 percent of visible and infrared light, respectively. Big improvement over aluminum. But silver's got problems too. "It is finicky. It's subject to tarnish, and oxidation, and corrosion."So Phillips and his team have borrowed a trick from the computer industry, called atomic layer deposition. The technique allows them to take a silver-coated mirror—and coat it with extremely uniform layers of transparent aluminum oxide, to protect against corrosion.And unlike the small-scale atomic deposition used in the electronics industry, this new machine--recently installed in a lab at U.C. Santa Cruz—is scaled up to coat mirror segments up to a meter in diameter. Meaning you could coat all 500 mirrors of a state-of-the-art telescope—like the planned Thirty Meter Telescope—in a matter of months. [Journal of SPIE]When put to use, these better mirrors might allow astronomers to capture more photons… and shed more light—literally—on faraway galaxies and stars.--Christopher Intagliata[The above text is a transcript of this podcast.]中文翻译为了研究天堂，它就是光子。 “我们天文学总是贪心。我们想要收集每一个光子。” Drew Phillips，加州大学天文台的天文学家。他说，更多的光子基本上意味着更多科学关于难以置信的微弱，遥远的物体。这就是光学问题出现的地方。因为入射光在从望远镜的商业端出来之前从几个镜子反射回来。镜子不是完全反光的。传统的镜面涂层铝仅反射约90％的光。在望远镜中将光线反射几次，就会失去宝贵的光子。“吞吐量，在现代光谱仪中最终检测到的光子的实际数量，如果你获得百分之三十，你就会做得很好。”所以你想要镜子最反光的材料。像银一样，分别反射97％到99％的可见光和红外光。铝的重大改进。但是白银也有问题。 “这很挑剔。它会受到玷污，氧化和腐蚀的影响。”因此，菲利普斯和他的团队借用了计算机行业的一种技巧，称为原子层沉积。该技术允许他们采用镀银镜面，并涂上极其均匀的透明氧化铝层，以防止腐蚀。与电子行业中使用的小规模原子沉积不同，这台新机器最近安装在英国的一个实验室。圣克鲁斯（Santa Cruz）被扩大到覆盖直径达1米的镜子段。这意味着你可以在几个月内涂上最先进的望远镜的所有500个镜子 - 就像计划中的三十米望远镜一样。 [SPIE期刊]当投入使用时，这些更好的镜子可能会让天文学家捕获更多的光子......并且在遥远的星系和恒星上发射更多的光。--Christopher Intagliata

In San Antonio, Lanny Sinkin is known as the former director of Solar San Antonio. Today he is known as Ali`i Mana`o Nui, adviser to Edmund Keli’i Silva Jr., who he considers the rightful leader of a soon-to-be-restored Kingdom of Hawai'i. Here I speak with Sinkin about his transition from solar advocate to king's advisor, his work with the Temple of Lono, fighting the Thirty Meter Telescope at the sacred mountain of Mauna Kea, the evolution of Dolphinville, and the ethics of swimming with whales and dolphins.

How do you balance the needs of indigenous people and major scientific projects? The Thirty Meter Telescope would be one the two most powerful Extremely Large Telescopes in the world, but many Native Hawaiians object to it's location on the mountain Maunu Kea.

Jonas Vibell will first tell us about the upcoming Reboot the Commute app challenge. Then Jyotika Virmani, Director of Technical Operations for the Wendy Schmidt Ocean Health XPRIZE will tell us about the Xprize finalists. Finally, we'll talk about the science behind and in front of the Thirty Meter Telescope.

ENCORE From Mauna Kea in Hawaii, the view of the cosmos is spectacular. Giant black holes, distant galaxies, and extrasolar planets have all been uncovered by the massive telescopes that perch on this volcanic cone. Join the astronomers who use the Keck Telescopes to peer at objects so far away, their light started out before Earth was born. Also discover how the new Thirty Meter Telescope will dwarf even the massive glass eyes now in place, and why some of the world’s most important astronomical discoveries are being made in the Aloha State. Plus, why the building of telescopes on the volcano is controversial to some native Hawaiians. Guests: Charles Blue - Science writer, Thirty Meter Telescope Project Richard Ellis - Astronomer, California Institute of Technology Koa Rice – Hawaiian culture consultant Julian Christou - Adaptive optics scientist, Gemini North Telescope Ashley Yeager - Outreach manager, Keck Telescope Taft Armandroff - Director of the W.
