Relocation of Corvus and Orion, September 2007

On Saturday, Spetmeber 1st 2007, Corvus and Orion were moved from the Physics building to their new machine room in the Badger building. This gallery presents some photos of the process, and of their re-installation.
The lower section of the gallery shows stereo pairs, presented as red-cyan anaglyphs (red on the left eye). The full images have been saved as bitmap files rather than JPEG, in order to reduce the appearance of "ghosting" artefacts. So be warned- the full bitmap file sizes are comparatively large, and are given next to the thumbnails for your information.
