The Hawaii government agency in charge of Kahoolawe, a former Navy bombing practice island off of Maui, has released a new online database of photos and documents illustrating the island and its archaeological artifacts.

The Kahoolawe Island Reserve Commission said in a press release that the “virtual museum” has been made possible through a two-year grant by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

Given how hard it is to get to Kahoolawe — access is limited, and even visitors who go there can’t walk everywhere due to unexploded ordnance — the online photos may be the closest you can get to see the island, its resources and the damage done.

The commission plans to release a mobile application next year as well featuring an interactive map and videos.

Correction: A previous version of this post incorrectly said the Navy set off a 500-pound bomb to simulate an atomic bomb explosion. The bomb was 500 tons not 500 pounds.
