We are in the Control Room of the CERN Antiproton Accumulator (AA), some time around 1980, celebrating the completion of a milestone during its construction.


Dieter Blechschmidt (to the left) tries his hand on the Touch Terminal as an AA operator while Simon van der Meer (to the right) enjoys the bells and whistles activated by his control programs. Blechschmidt+vdMeer
Michael C. Crowley-Milling discusses the ergometric design of the AA incarnation of the Touch Terminal with Heribert Koziol. Simon listens carefully. vdMeer+Crowley-Milling
