Keck Observatory Featured in NOVA Documentary

PBS Hawai’i aired Hunting the Edge of Space, a documentary exploring how the telescope has expanded our view of the Universe.

The program features planet hunter Geoff Marcy and his search with the Keck I telescope and its High Resolution Echelle Spectrograph, or HIRES, for planets similar to Earth. The documentary is now available to watch online. Marcy appears in Part I, Chapter 5 of the video.
