Hawaiian Stargazing: ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center
Looking for an “Authentic Hawaiian Voyage Through Time and Space?” Who isn’t? If you haven’t visited the Big Island’s ‘Imiloa Astronomy Center to take in a show at the planetarium or view its exhibits, you’re missing out on some of the most interesting resources Hilo has to offer.
Located on a nine-acre campus above the University of Hawaii-Hilo, with spectacular views, the center, formerly known as Maunakea Astronomy Education Center, is where families and students from all walks of life explore the connections between Hawaiian cultural traditions and the science of astronomy.
