Ian RobinsonThe Pleiades and Jupiter are bright on the Subaru Telescope webcam on Mauna Kea Hawaii right now.

The star Capella has entered the chat…
Left hand side. Above the Keck 1 dome.
Quite a few meteors as well.
@ianRobinson This is so cool! I never knew you could watch live streams from telescopes!
@aryawinningson Yep. There is also another view with what’s in the sky over the current webcam view. https://www.youtube.com/live/fPgVSTj7TZc?feature=share
I tend to use Sky Guide app with location set to Mauna Kea though.

@aryawinningson I should add. The livestream is from a web cam on the Subaru telescope building. Not a live feed of what the Subaru telescope is looking at. It’s mainly for meteor spotting.
@ianRobinson Oh I see.
I live in a city so views like these are hard to come by. I'll check out that app you mentioned. Thanks!
@aryawinningson This web view of that portion of the sky is better than what the Subaru telescope is looking at.
