Last week's image featured the Fog Sweep machine, and was identified by Robert Young, Mary Keller, John Davis, and Diane Flaherty. This is a mechanical contraption, with a 100 foot long dispensing sleeve, designed to dissipate heavy fog, by adding saline chemicals into the air. This experiment took place at the Nantucket Airport in July 1968, and failed miserably.
