The U.S. Forest Service has approved plans to place several telescope near a sweat lodge in the Coronado National Forest of Arizona.

To All Our Relations, the group that runs the sweat lodge, opposed the project. But the permit was granted to the Smithsonian Institution to build seven telescopes on 10 acres of forest land.

The telescopes will be about 1,000 feet from the sweat lodge.
