      I don’t study them directly but I get to see the first discoveries that come from the telescopes on Maunakea. One of these telescopes is called ‘Subaru’ it is built by the japanese and it has produced the first map of dark energy/matter that we have.
      You can see this map here: http://www.naoj.org/Pressrelease/index_2007.html

      Seriously, my Japanese buddies are on it! 🙂
