<DIV>It was well maintained and has been in service for 60 years. The hurricane
that came through a few months ago damaged it beyond repair. Broke several
support cables that caused strain on the remaining cables. It fell last week. It
is amazing that the drone was looking at the main support hub when it separated
from it’s mount. Rice University had several projects there while I was working
there in the Space Physics and Astronomy department in the mid 60’2 through
70’s. I have not been to the site.</DIV>
