Trip to Laser Lab 2005
This trip was supported in part by the modern physics class in Spring 2005. The course instructor at that time, Russel Simpson, arranged the trip through his friend at the university. The laser lab was huge at the time, and you can see some photos of how they plan to expand the site to make it 64x more powerful.
