Marius is very dirty

Today, the cable were mostly installed into the wrap. The servo cables are basically all there, and the compressor cables are all in. I am waiting on our science cables until after the servo is mostly done. The elevation wrap looks pretty, although we could not test it due to the imbalance.



The Az looks orderly, but it won't work without the banana or other fix mentioned yesterday. The plan is to check out the SZA banana tomorrow.

This is all that is sticking out of the base of the telescope. There is a new trip hazard, thanks to the servo cable conduit.


Funny story for today- Marius and Dave put up their canopy worthy of a Sultan. The plan was to built the 80/20 parts under the tent, but Marius spent just as much time rolling in the dirt.



This is the messiest I have seen anybody so far. He cleaned up nice for dinner, but reports that there is dirt all over his motel room.
