20: End of Observation

The sun is rising, and it is the sign to end the observation. You will go back to Hale Pohaku and take a rest before returning to the Base Facility. Be careful on the way down the mountain because the steep downhill will increase your car's velocity more than you can imagine use low gear and do not ride the brake. Drive safely. Once you're back in Hilo have a simple check on the observation result after few minute rest at the Base Facility. Authentic data analysis will be done after you go back to your office.
