DSC01242  [15 of 32]


Having fun with the manipulator (yes, I'm older than 12). Workers used to manipulate radioactive materials with a remote manipulator exactly like this one. It's actually pretty easy to use it, even to carry out relatively complex tasks like opening a box and putting stuff in it.
