Subaru telescope

Observations have also been made with the Subaru telescope in Hawaii.

The object, nearly 13 times the mass of Jupiter, was directly photographed by the Subaru Telescope.

"The Subaru Telescope, the one Ajmal admires from the last century.

Construction of the telescope began in April 1991, and later that year, a public contest gave the telescope its official name, "Subaru Telescope."

Several cameras and spectrographs can be mounted at Subaru Telescope's four focal points for observations in visible and infrared wavelengths.

The planet was discovered on April 14, 2007 by a team using the radial velocity method on the Keck and Subaru telescopes.

In 2011, observations of the ring offset by the Subaru Telescope implies that one or more planets would likely exist within gaps tugging at its dust grains.

Subaru Telescope, located in Mauna Kea Observatory on Hawaii, is also named after the Pleiades.

The observing campaign uses the Keck, Magellan and Subaru telescopes, plus automated telescopes at Fairborn Observatory.

The mirror, which is 27 feet in diameter but only 8 inches thick, is destined for the Subaru Telescope on Mauna Kea near Hilo.

In September 2008, the Subaru telescope obtained the optical spectrum of Tycho Brahe's supernova near maximum brightness from a scattered-light echo.

In November 2009, a team using the HiCIAO instrument of the Subaru Telescope imaged a substellar companion orbiting the star.

GJ 758 B was detected by direct imaging using the HiCIAO instrument of the Subaru Telescope.

The Pluto observations were conducted by astronomers using Japan's new Subaru Telescope, at the summit of Mauna Kea on the island of Hawaii.

The galaxy was detected in a wide field of view image taken by Subaru Telescope using the Subaru Prime Focus Camera (Suprime-Cam).

Fibre multi-object spectrograph (FMOS) is facility instrument for the Subaru telescope on Mauna Kea in Hawaii.

"We must still prove it, but I think that our telescope's design will allow us to make the best images," said Dr. Norio Kaifu, the director of the Subaru telescope.

Even though it is not yet equipped with the devices that astronomers will need to take full advantage of its powers, the Subaru telescope has already exceeded many of its designers' expectations.

Officials with the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan, which is building the Subaru Telescope, decided on a monolithic mirror, believing that it would offer better performance, particularly in the infrared spectrum.

In 2012 it was announced that a "Super-Jupiter" planet with a mass about 12.8M orbiting Kappa Andromedae was directly imaged using the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii.

Recent measurements from the Subaru telescope suggest that the moon is indeed icy, indicating that it cannot have formed in its current position, since the hot primordial Jupiter would have melted it.

In a different study, published in the August 2010 Astrophysical Journal Letters, Thalmann and colleagues used the Subaru telescope in Hawaii to observe the young star LkCa 15.

Using a coronagraph on the Subaru telescope in Hawaii in 2005, astronomers were able to further constrain the size of a planet orbiting Vega to no more than 5-10 times the mass of Jupiter.

Additional small theaters show a Kumulipo (Hawaiian origins) story, and an astronomy "birth of the universe" 3D presentation, underwritten by the National Astronomical Observatory of Japan (Subaru Telescope).

It was discovered in April 2006 by Masanori Iye at National Astronomical Observatory of Japan using the Subaru Telescope in Hawaii and seen as it was 12.88 billion years ago.
