#1463: Altitude explain

Because of low oxygen, astronomers working at high altitude telescopes may need to write down their plans ahead of time while at sea level.

[Some astronomers are inside a sea-level research facility.]

Astronomer #1: Ok, let’s head up to the observatory.

[The astronomers drive uphill.]

Astronomer #1: When we reach the summit, we’ll check the iodine cell and do a general calibration.

Astronomer #2: Sounds good.

[The astronomers have reached the high-altitude observatory.]

Astronomer #1: My head feels funny.

Astronomer #2: Look at those telescope domes. I hope they don’t roll away.

Astronomer #1: Maybe we should tape them down.

[The astronomers are inside one of the domes.]

Astronomer #1: Haha, look at this mirror! My face is huge!

Astronomer #2: I see your face in the telescope! I discovered you!

Astronomer #1: Let’s make out!
