CANARY ISLANDS WILL FIGHT FOR TMT














 


ELDia.es - January 20, 2019 - By Jorge Dávila

Excerpt From A Spanish Language Interview With Rafael Rebolo Lopez,
Director - The Institute Of Astrophysics Of The Canary Islands

"That project [TMT] is defined, but its construction continues in the air for issues that affect the sacred character of a mountain," says Rebolo....

...If in the end it is not viable to locate the TMT in Hawai`i, La Palma, Canary Islands is one of the best options....

If it is not done there because it collides head-on with people who are willing to give their lives so that the mountain continue as it is today, the Institute Of Astrophysics Of Th Canary Islands must fight to have that telescope."
