    Congratulations, Makala!

    Makala Hayashida, one of our seniors, competed at the state level in the Hawaii Science and Engineering Fair this week. His project, entitled “Testing the Bottom-Up Formation of Galaxy Clusters,” looked at five galaxy clusters. For each one, he measured its mass and determined the average age of its stellar population; as a result, he found that the more massive a cluster is, the older its galaxies’ stars tend to be–which gives us information about how these clusters form. His project won second place in the state in his category. He also won a full four-year scholarship to his choice of UH Mānoa or UH Hilo. Many congratulations to Makala for his hard work!
