INTRO TO TMT NOTES:
SCIENTIFIC PERSPECTIVE
1. What is the purpose of the TMT?
HAWAIIAN PERSPECTIVE
1. Why do many protesters want the TMT project stopped?
TMT doesn't have a shot at answering that question if it's not built on Mauna Kea. The
summit sits above the cloud line providing a crystal-clear window into space. The dry
air will make it possible to take some of the sharpest images we've ever seen.
The future of Hawaii
The most harmful consequence of the protest movement is how it might in#uence
future investment in Hawaii. Critics of the protest movement say no one will want to
risk bankrolling a big project in the state if it could be met with the same kind of
resistance as TMT.
It's a shame that compromise has failed, and it all hinges on a court battle now.
"[The protesters] have said this time and again - they will be against it forever,"
Coleman said. "Which I think is kind of a silly thing to say, because what if TMT starts
running and everybody starts doing really well and loving the extra money that's
pouring into the economy, and more and more jobs are being dedicated to Hawaiian
people?"
Hawaiians have always been incredibly adaptable and forward-thinking people,
Coleman told me. They have always embraced new technology when it will bene!t
them and make life better for their people.
That's what TMT could do for Hawaii, if the people will let it.
