This is great to hear! Mauna Kea is a far better location for the kind of science TMT will be doing [1], especially when it has to compete with the European Extremely Large Telescope in the southern hemisphere.

A report by the Canadian Astronomical Society (Canada has a ~15% stake) found that with taking all these variables into play, Mauna Kea is still the best site for TMT. See page 35 for the final recomendations: http://casca.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/CATAC-Report-Fina...
