A new five-ton instrument that goes by the name MOSFIRE (Multi-Object
Spectrometer for Infra-Red Exploration) has been installed in the Keck I
Telescope at the W.M. Keck Observatory atop Mauna Kea in Hawaii. MOSFIRE

has been stretched or "redshifted" to the infrared by the expansion of
the universe.
