Extractions: The US took formal possession of the islands in 1867. The laying of the trans-Pacific cable, which passed through the islands, brought the first residents in 1903. Between 1935 and 1947, Midway was used as a refueling stop for trans-Pacific flights. The US naval victory over a Japanese fleet off Midway in 1942 was one of the turning points of World War II. The islands continued to serve as a naval station until closed in 1993. Today the islands are a national wildlife refuge. From 1996 to 2001 the refuge was open to the public. It is now temporarily closed. This category needs an editor - apply here Open Site Code 0.4.1

The state has a total area of 16,729 sq km (6459 sq mi), including 93 sq km (36 sq mi) of inland water. It is the fourth smallest state. The mean elevation is about 920 m (about 3030 ft). The state of Hawaii is not coextensive with the geographical unit called the Hawaiian Islands, or Hawaiian Chain. The inhabited Midway Islands, in the northwest, are not part of the state but are administered by the U.S. government. The atoll of Palmyra, an island southwest of the main islands, was part of the Territory of Hawaii but was specifically excluded from the state when statehood was achieved in 1959. It remains a U.S. territory. Climate The eight main islands of Hawaii, which lie just south of the tropic of Cancer, have a tropical climate that is determined by their latitude and oceanic setting and by the influence of the prevailing northeast trade winds.

In the struggle for international security, scientists are turning an ear to the skies. A new collection of electronic ears is cropping up around the world. The devices listen to the air for doomsday reverberations - the low-frequency sound waves generated by nuclear explosions, among other phenomena. Dallas scientists will help use this new global array to monitor atomic explosions. The listening technique, which was popular in the 1950s and 1960s, is undergoing a renaissance as 60 new stations are installed around the planet. Southern Methodist University is building two of the stations, on Wake and Midway islands in the Pacific Ocean. Listening for the low-frequency sounds, called infrasound, may be the best way to detect a nuclear bomb exploding in the atmosphere, scientists think.
