Other big Arizona telescopes besides the DCT got
re-alumininized this summer, including the MMT at
Mount Hopkins south of Tucson.  Two short videos are
posted here:

...and a crane-top bird's-eye view of lifting off the
vacuum-chamber bell jar:

...which emphasizes the already vertiginous aspect of
the small summit.  You're allowed to turn the music
down/off on this one.
