Nope, that is us shining a laser through the back end of the telescope towards the moon. I haven't had the pleasure of being a spotter for them yet, but basically, they shine the big ass laser at the moon, and then sit back and wait for the light to bounce off the reflector and hit the telescope again. They can then time it and determine the distance to the moon.

eta: That green line is the actual laser beam itself. Its such a high powered laser, everyone is required to wear special safety glasses. We also have to have "spotters" who look out from the front platform of the telescope looking for planes. If we spot a plane, they shut down the laser until it passes.

Hopefully, none of the spotters are pissing off the roof when a plane goes by.

How else do you know that your on the ledge and aren't peeing on anyone?!

And no, this is a different telescope than the picture I showed you on the other page (which was MY telescope). The 3.5m is controlled by different observers and doesn't have such a huge drop off, its only about 30ft and onto the ground level of the control building.

Just for fun.

Archer - OMG! You killed a hooker!

Cyril - Call girl! She was a...

Archer - No Cyril! When they're dead, they're just hookers! God, I said the cap slips off the poison pen for no reason, didn't I!?

Cyril - I...I...I know but I just thought that if anything bad happened it'd just...

Archer - No! Do NOT say the Checkoff gun. That, sir, is a facile argument!

Woodhouse (butler) - And also woefully esoteric.

Archer - Woodhouse.

Woodhouse - Fetching a rug sir.

Archer - Now he's fetching a rug. Happy Cyril?!

Cyril - NO! No I'm NOT HAPPY!

Archer - WELL GUESS WHAT?! ME NEITHER! I mean, big picture, I wouldn't say I'm a happy person.

Woodhouse - Sir, I have fetched the rug.

Archer - Plus, now I'm out of a rug.


...


Cyril - OH GOD! I should never have agreed to this! You and your stupid mother and her stupid frothing loins!

Archer - (slaps Cyril) Hey, I know you're upset, but if you EVER mention my mother's loins or their frothiness again, I .. don't know what I'll do. But it will be BAD!



Archer - Now lets go bury this hooker!

Time to crash I guess. Maybe I'll get to "plow the cave" or "toss the hotdog down the canal" or whatever you guys say.

Oh yeah.
