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

@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.
