Subject:
Correspondence Cinder cones Mauna Kea
Summary:
Dr. Woollard sent a copy of "Report on ground noise level on Mauna Kea" to Dr. Kuiper. The source of the vibrations noted by Mauna Kea observer is due to that the cinder cone is easily shaken. However, extremely low water-vapor content makes Mauna Kea an excellent site for optical, infrared, and microwave programs. Dr. Kuiper is visiting Hawaii in October and would like to meet Dr. Woollard at his convenience.
