  24. Interesting insights into the re-aluminizing procedure for the telescope mirrors of the #CHARA interferometer on #MountWilson in California during a #ShadowTheScientists video conference today. Note the paddling pool in the first image: decidedly low tech in use at the maintenance of a high-end professional observatory.
