Now THAT’S the droid we’re looking for! Granted, it is hard to miss.
Carleton’s Goodsell Observatory gets turned into R2-D2 by an unknown group of enterprising students — complete with sound effects. All the “decorations” appear to have been draped or taped onto the dome; there was no defacing with spray paint, etc.
WATCH VIDEO: Goodsell R2-D2

Reminds me of this classic MIT hack: http://hacks.mit.edu/Hacks/by_year/1999/r2d2/
EPIC!!!
Flat-out awesome. Those students should be given straight A’s for the semester.
Wow… lol
They should get a diploma for that alone!

nothing new MIT has done stuff like on their Dome.
That is freaking SWEET!
Utter Awesomeness!!!
It looks awesome, but can’t really call it a “prank” since no defacing was done. In fact, they made it look BETTER!
Lets do it to “the Globe” in Stockholm/Sweden. Worlds largest sperical building
….. it is white to.
That’s an awesome prank.
Wonderful!!! A truly awesome prank that will be remembered fondly!

It’s amazing what they did, especially not damaged the structure … so we are big fans of Q …..
I say very creative. It is amazing to think of the heights that imagination can be bring. Either these students are straight As or star wars fanatics.
Thanks for this post. Very interesting indeed. Hope you can visit my site as well.
Holy potatoes!
