"If the world saw the universe the way I do, or the way we do, the world would be a fundamentally different place," he said. Squires said he believes that the process of answering those questions, and the answers themselves, could change humanity forever that's why he became an astronomer in the first place. Its findings could tackle some of astronomy's signature existential questions, Gordon Squires, TMT's vice president for external relations and an astronomer by profession, told : Are we alone? How did the universe wake up? What is dark matter? Now called TMT International Observatory, the group set out to design a telescope with such a massive observing mirror that it would change science forever. Astro-Photography is still a favorite past time.The saga of the TMT began in 2003, when a nonprofit partnership formed between two universities in California and counterparts in Japan, China, India and Canada.

Commercial Astronomy has been a full time endeavor ever since. Then, he started Star Gaze Hawaii in 1992. Wayne bought a Radio Shack Associate store in 1984 and ran that until 1991. He earned a certified Photofinishing Engineer certificate in 1978 and worked in Photofinishing labs from 1974 until 1981. Along the way, he was offered a full time job in Photofinishing lab work.
Wayne attended the University of Hawaii in 1974 and pursued a degree in Physics. Astro-Photography became a passion and he became highly proficient in a darkroom. A life-long pursuit of Astronomy and Physics developed. Voracious reading of anything related to astronomy exhausted the local library’s resources. This led to a hunt for all of the planets with a 1” diameter telescope. Jupiter’s 4 moons were revealed as well as the color of Mars. Venus was a bright dot in the evening sky, but the telescope revealed it as a tiny crescent. Fukunaga, found his life’s calling, astronomy, in September of 1962 as he first looked through a telescope at the Planet Venus.
The Founder of Star Gaze Hawaii, Wayne M. Our selection of deep space objects to view is tailored for visual impact and to expand the viewer’s horizons. Best focus maximizes the viewing experience. Shallow depth of field results require different focus settings for each person. Each individual has different eyesight in the darkness due to dilated pupils. We stress that each participant focus the telescope to match their eyesight.
Our equipment is maintained to high standards and our optics are limited only by the atmospheric conditions. Physics concepts are explained in layman’s terms and pictorial explanations will be given. We wish to share the awesomeness of the Universe with everyone. With the aid of our astronomer tour guide, we seek to provide as much background information as possible to help you to understand what is being viewed. In no other science can the novice actually view the raw data and make personal impressions. Astronomy, besides being a scientific endeavor, is a deeply personal act of exploration. Star Gaze Hawaii was established in 1992 to do stargazing using excellent optics accompanied with stimulating star lore.
