Laboratory Details
The laboratory was a disused military bunker at Cashmere in Christchurch, built in case of Japanese invasion of New Zealand during WWII.
Technology and Support
The mirror technology used was developed for military purposes in the U.S.A. in recent decades, although the project has never had military support.
