20: End of Observation

The sun is rising, and it is the sign to end the observation. The observatory staff will drive you back to Hale Pohaku and you will take a rest before returning to the Base Facility. Once you're back in Hilo have a simple check on the observation results after a few minutes rest at the Base Facility. Authentic data analysis will be done after you return to your office.
