60" aluminization
April/May 2005

• Larry, Bill and Dave "wiggle" the mirror cell out of the telescope


• Larry and Dave contemplate the sad state of the primary mirror


• Beautiful fresh aluminum on the three mirrors


• Victor and Lionel raise the tertiary mirror cell up to mate with the mirror


• Victor guides the Bobcat to receive the mirror for its return to the 60-inch dome


• A look at the primary mirror cell with the mirror removed


• Larry, Dave and Victor work to return the primary mirror to its cell


• The ring on floating supports that controls lateral movement of the mirror being reinstalled


• Dave Jurasevich seems to be pleased with the progress of the operation
