The University of Hawaii Board of Regents is detailing plans for Mauna Kea amid ongoing protests against the Thirty Meter Telescope.

From 6 a.m. to noon, dozens of Thirty Meter Telescope opponents blocked two separate entrances to the parking lot at the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation in Palo Alto.

The protest at the base of Mauna Kea is now in its 89th day, and a resolution is nowhere in sight.

Police say they’ll continue their enhanced enforcement for the duration of the protest.

Thirty Meter Telescope supporters gathered at the state Capitol Friday.

The vast majority of the costs ― $4.1 million ― were for law enforcement.

Protest leaders said the mayor’s “way forward” missed the mark, and proves that they aren't being heard.

Neil deGrasse Tyson, one of the world’s most well-known astrophysicists, published an opinion piece on the Thirty Meter Telescope controversy on Wednesday, offering another perspective he says “may have been overlooked in the heat of debates.”

In a Hilo courtroom, each kupuna faced the judge on charges of obstruction, a misdemeanor crime.

In the wake of the post, UH President David Lassner issued a statement denouncing the comments, calling them “hurtful and wholly inaccurate.”

To avoid the appearance of a conflict of interest, the Hawaii attorney general’s office will take over prosecution of protesters arrested for blocking construction of a giant telescope.

Ige accused protesters of interfering unfairly with law enforcement activities and eliciting an unnecessary reaction from the crowd that had gathered.

The couple's foundation has pledged $250 million toward the $1.4 billion Thirty Meter Telescope.

The University of Hawaii would no longer solely manage the mountain under the plan.

The protest received a special event permit from the city.

They claim the access road was built illegally on Hawaiian Home Lands.

The governor said the structure posed a health and safety risk.

The flag had been affixed to the structure, apparently in anticipation of the state’s plan to raze it.

Native Hawaiians should have ‘entire say’ about what happens to the mountain, the famous astrophysicist says.

Despite this quiet period, the Kia’i, those who call themselves protectors of Mauna Kea are warning their supporters to expect law enforcement action in the next 30 days.“We are being notified that law enforcement is considering using excessive force by way of chemical dispersants to punish and sup

The man responsible for prosecuting the mostly Native Hawaiian elders arrested for protesting construction of a giant telescope said there is no conflict of interest, even though his son works for one of the embattled project’s partners.

Just days before the planned start of construction for the Thirty Meter Telescope last month, Hawaii County Mayor Harry Kim sent a letter to Governor David Ige asking for a 30-day delay.

Thirty Meter Telescope officials acknowledge that their backup site atop a peak on the Spanish Canary island of La Palma is a comparable observatory location, and that it wouldn’t cost more money or take extra time to build it there.

Separate court dates have been set for the remaining protesters who were taken into custody.

Lawmakers are raising major concerns about the rising costs for law enforcement and first responders at the site of the Thirty Meter Telescope protest on Mauna Kea.

That figure doesn’t include costs incurred by other county police departments or by the state.

The governor hasn’t publicly spoken about the conflict on Mauna Kea for more than two weeks.

On PBS Insights Thursday night, Mayor Harry Kim described the decision making process on July 17 on Mauna Kea when law enforcement faced off with activists.

Thirty-eight people were arrested on July 17.

"There was a significant risk that the increasingly vocal and volatile group of protesters on both shoulders would respond with violence."

"Their concerns are not based on good science."

“It was very trying if I could use that word."

Gabbard said, “what is happening here is about so much more than just a telescope.”

The agreement was announced Friday by the Maunakea Observatories.

The ad campaign comes on the fourth week of a TMT protest at the base of Mauna Kea.

If TMT moves to its "Plan B" site, it's likely to find opposition there, too.

The existing telescopes continue to sit idle during this fourth week of the TMT protest on Mauna Kea. The lack of research has frustrated scientists and technicians say getting up to the summit to do maintenance has been a struggle.

“The different approaches to learning and having students be able to be on the mauna and study in many different fields in classes that are offered, I think that is so exciting."

The group says it has “no less reason or less determination than the Hawaiian TMT opponents.”

The consortium said they still plan to put the $1.4 billion telescope on the top of Mauna Kea.

The conflict on Mauna Kea is about to enter it’s fourth week with no end in sight.

The BOR meeting kicked off at 9 a.m., and was slated to go well into the afternoon.

Amid the protest, there have been calls for him to resign ― something he doesn’t plan to do.

Protesters had a mandatory meeting at 1 p.m. to go over preparations.

Mars is one of several big names in entertainment to show their support for the protesters.

So far, telescope officials have said they still prefer to build in Hawaii.

TMT protesters have blocked the access road to the summit of Mauna Kea for 16 days.

“I cannot call the Guard. Because I don’t have the authority and who wants it, right? I don’t even want this job."

Word of the deal was announced Sunday by project opponents.

"In a sense, all we're looking to do is go up the road."

“All we’re asking is that they communicate with us. And when they have, we’ve worked it out.”

Still no compromise in the standoff over the controversial Thirty Meter Telescope

TMT opponents will decide whether to accept the mayor's proposal.

More than 500 employees work at the observatories, and about 50 to 75 of them would be up at the summit on any given day.

Johnson’s visit comes on the 10th day of the protest.

In a statement, Gov. David Ige said Kim will be “taking the lead” in Mauna Kea negotiations.

“We really need these STEM jobs and Hawaii Island is so limited."

The incident comes as the telescopes atop Mauna Kea are left unattended.
