Destroying LOFAR — Load #7

Surely we must be getting close? Or would our snow-supply have melted away before we finished the task.



Another load (albeit smaller this time) was added to the pile.



This photograph does a good job of showing the problem we're now facing. We've more-or-less covered the entire tile surface. There are still no signs of it collapsing and we are starting to wonder if we need some alternative testing method.
