Welcome to the NRC Magnetic Resonance Facility!
This is the new home of the 900.
The magnet arrived very early in the morning of May 31st on a flatbed truck from J.F.K. airport in New York. This may not have been the fastest route, but it was the safest. Notice the crane beside the magnet; the magnet must be lifted and lowered through an opening in the ceiling of the building.
Securing the magnet.
Pre-lift. The sun is now beginning to rise.

What kind of magnet?
A Bruker 900 magnet!

The final product.
And, finally, the "to-be console".
