Early this morning, Slice of MIT reporters spotted this hack on the top of MIT's Great Dome. Hackers were apparently able to mount a gigantic image of Institute founder William Barton Rogers on the sacred site. The hack might be a nod to the MIT sesquicentennial celebrations....[Happy April Fools Day!

Even more amazing about this hack is how the students were able to remove the snow from the dome and separate the clouds for blue skies.
This is awesome!!
I love the photoshop…
Strange – For a photograph taken this morning, shows a almost clear blue sky but all night long and through this whole day, Cambridge has been cloudy with snow falling in the morning. Is it possible that the hack somehow suspended belief as well?
