The last days in the Assembly Hall
Following up on yesterday's post on the Instrument Support Package, the ODI dewar is also getting ready for shipping. The picture below shows the dewar on its shipping crate (yellow), awaiting the final tweaks before the great transport next week. Visibly attached to the dewar are the large shutter (in black, made by the University of Bonn), and the two golden boxes that contain the Stargrasp CCD controller system (made by University of Hawaii).
