fuck yea. astronomy is very cool and we basically have to do imperialism to do it anymore because of the amount of light pollution in the imperial core.
if it makes anyone feel any better, with some important exceptions, a lot of this is the typical geopolitics imperialism about putting stuff in the middle of nowhere, on land "legally owned" by colonizers, as opposed to actively desecrating places that people live. Exceptions include Hawaii, at least in some cases, and possibly some of the island sites.
