The CFH Observatory hosts a world class 3.6 meter optical / infrared telescope situated atop Mauna Kea, 4200 meters above sea level, within the island of Hawaii. The telescope became operational in 1979, whose mission is to provide the observing community with versatile state of the art imaging of the universe and the solar system, housed within the observatory.
The observatory headquarters is located in Waimea (also known as Kamuela by the Post Office), where the CHFT has been part of the community since 1977.
