Level 2 Photo Documentation and Photos

Level 2 photo documentation of the various Witness materials consisted of imaging each item at various magnifications with Leica MZ16A Stereo Microscope system and the DFC320 3.3 megapixel digital camera. This system is a standalone, manual microscope system that is used for detailed documentation of samples, splits, and keystones following removal from the Cometary Tray.

Items documented in this fashion include the Aerogel witness tile, a round Al disc, a round sapphire disc, and the Al cover plate that held the two round disc in place on the tray arm. A medium level magnification mosaic of each item can be view by clicking on the links that appear below the link to this document.
