Dewar

The dewar is a commercial unit to be provided by IR Labs. The dewar will carry enough liquid nitrogen to operate XXX hours between fills. The dewar carries the CCD array, local electronics, and kinematic features for connecting the dewar to the cameras. Removal and replacement of the dewar is a daytime operation, and will not occur during the course of a night's operation.
