To understand why my health was failing, I applied astronomical knowledge to my mind and body.

It is well known to astronomers that the very high altitudes that are good for telescopes are really bad for human health.

Observed health conditions in various high altitude workers were not limited to: Digestive Disorders, Heart Issues, Chronic Headaches, Strokes, Fatigue, Sleepiness, Sleep Disorders, Amnestic Disorders, Irritability, Aggressive Behaviors, Confusion, Various Mental Health Issues, Radiation Sickness including Faraday Cage Sickness, Benign Tumors and Cancers that included Throat, Lymphoma and Colon cancer.

A mental health professional stated this to me 'You are not crazy, but you may be losing your mind'. After many consultations, he unfortunately failed to diagnose the B12 deficiency that I had that is known to cause these adverse mental health symptoms.

I committed to embrace my mental health issues.

Astronomers know the Mauna Kea Observatories (MKO) are biologically toxic to their workers health, but do not inform the new hires of it, other than they may get altitude sickness and direct them to use the company supplied drugs to offset that sickness. They know that workers are inappropriately acclimatizing on a daily basis, which further aggravates the altitude sickness symptoms.

Astronomy is a profession that I tell people to avoid on the grounds of health and safety.

I can assure you that there is a very large group of people that are completely okay with damaging your health as long as they can obtain their precious data by doing so.

Having studied the toxicity of high altitude astronomy, I now advise people not to work in it for the protection of their health and safety.
