Shipping Rubin's Filters
At SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory, all six of the LSST Camera filters have been installed in their storage container. When they ship to Chile next year the filters will be removed from the container and packed separately, and the container will also be shipped—it’s the same one that will be used on Cerro Pachón to store the filters when they are not installed in the camera.
