The Gemini northern 8-meter telescope (right) and the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (center) seen in evening twilight, after sunset. Three satellites can be seen in the photograph as short streaks in the sky. The red glow on the right is from a vehicle's brake lights. The distant glow on the horizon comes from the town of Honokaa.
