Day Two: Mauna Kea

Over the summer I created over 35 achievement badges for the Withings Health Mate fitness app. I'm going to post one per day until I run out!

Day two is Mauna Kea in Hawai'i.

“Mauna Kea (13,796 feet / 4205 m), the largest mountain in the world (measured from its base) is a dormant volcano in Hawai'i which has become an international center for astronomy. Several astronomical observatories are located on its summit. The austere Mars-like landscape dotted with technological marvels is worth a look; if it is clear you might also get a look out to Maui.”
