Hi, I’ve some hard time with film editing for Kelly’s interview, sorry for this, …, thanks for your patience

Looking forward to Dr Kelly Fast’s interview …

WONDERFUL - Thanks for that piece of fun.

That was quite a surprise! You were all so kind! It was a pleasure meeting you! ~Kelly

This is absolutely crazy, can’t believe it, we just got an interview of Kelly, yeeeeeees !!! We know you are so busy and refuse, absolutely, all the interviews. How lucky we are! On behalf of all the thousands of people of your french fan club of Paris Observatory, mahalo nui loa Kelly. Pierre :-))

Note for the all the fans: we are all here working hard in getting the authorizations of our beloved Mauna Kea star to publish the video of that incredible interview

this is awesome!! i love it!!!!

Wow, what an honor to be part of the curriculum!
~Kelly

My professor showed me this video in Astronomy class…I love it.

Never stole food, but hot drinks, quite a few! Feels like nice old time

Hahaha never stole food but hot drinks, quite a few… Awesome jobs with the music guys ^^

That was awesome! It really makes me miss the long long long nights at the IRTF. x_x Did you ever steal food from the CFHT’s kitchen?

Nice video and nice song. But remember, you can check out of spacetime any time you like, but you can never leave.

This is really a cool song, I enjoyed it, thanks.

We have checked with folks here at Mauna Kea. The most correct naming is “Mauna a Wakea”, pronounced MOW-nuh (rhymes with now-nuh) ah vah-kay-uh, which means “mountain of Wakea, the sky-father.” The casual usage is the modern Mauna Kea, pronounced “MOW-nah Kay-ah.” We have our pronunciation advice from the visitor center, from rangers, and on best authority from Kimo from the ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center.

Hi! (You know it’s me).
I’ve already told you I like the video, but I haven’t posted any comments.
We all miss you now that you’re back in Hawaii!
(Moh-ah-na Kee-ah?!)

ScienceTim again. We had a second comment from Paahau, who apparently did not take kindly to the intended joking in my response to antman252. We’re trying to avoid obscenities here, which is why I am not approving Paahau’s comment to be posted. Say it clean, even if non-complimenatry, and it will stay.

I will ask my Hawaiian cultural contacts the correct pronunciation when I am there in a week. Will we accept that it’s an authoritative pronunciation if it’s from native Hawaiians?

ScienceTim here. Thanks! I wondered how to say it right. I feel stuck with saying it Mah-oo-nuh Kay-uh, since people seem to understand me when I say it that way. Now I can say it properly in my head and feel superior.

Give us a link for Hotel Honolulu. I found a hotel advertisement of that name with tanned bodies in swimsuits. Appealing, but not the same territory.

ScienceTim here. I admit, we’re saying it the haole way. What can I say? We’re haoles. We know it. We admit it. It’s our burden to bear.

Sorry…. please tell me where MOWNA KAYA is?? If my memory serves correctly the proper pronounciation of that mountain is Moana Kea (moh ah na kee ah). But Michael Pirahna has a better paradoy called Hotel Honolulu.

very good! nice parody!

She pronounces mauna wrong. But other than that, this was great.

Wow 13788ft = 0.0000000281 a.u. which is perty darn high…And my hunch is that Don Henley, Glenn Frey, and Joe Walsh are no strangers to flying high. And they’d probably get a kick out of your video, too.

When I was in the army(1980) I did a stint at PTA(Pohakaloa Traing Area)2 buddies and I climbed to the top and descended down Pohakaloa gulch.(difficult it was).We were given freah water at the observatory.The images brought back some memories thanks

Wonderful just wonderful!!! Nice to see that spirit of fun and science. Got to go do one more tweak before the song ends. Clear skies
