Dans la salle blanche de l'IRAM (Institut de Radioastronomie Millimétrique). Collage d'un morceau de quartz sur un porte échantillon afin de le regarder au microscope électronique. Avec son fort grossissement (jusqu'à x 300 000) cet outil est indispensable pour observer en détail les étapes de la fabrication des jonctions supraconductrices, éléments-clés du système de réception des signaux astronomiques.
