Radar Dome headed back out

[JChlupsa]

Well after a couple of months here in Hawaii to have Corrosion Control and Re-paint. Its now headed back to Alaska and passed by my office this morning. Its sitting on a ship that submerges and they then mount the platform on the deck and then the ship rasises to trasnport it. Pretty neat. Same ship that brought the USS Cole back to the US after it got bombed.

Geez Jeff, you have the roughest life over there!

There was just a story about that ship on Modern Marvels. Quite impressive.

Didn't I see this contraption in Austin Powers? It's one of Dr. Evil's pieces I presume.

Just found out its not headed back, It was being towed out for testing and then back to dry dock until later and then to Alaska. Still neat seeing it being towed out to open water though
