You spin us right round, right round 🎶
Our summit team recently tested the function that the camera rotator is named for and all went well!

**More details: The "camera rotator" is the piece that connects to both our giant, car-sized camera and the telescope, effectively serving as a mechanical adaptor that connects the two complex systems together.
