The photo above was taken just as the water begins to flood the drydock this afternoon. Filling it with some 300 million liters of water will take until tomorrow.
The photo above was taken just before the flooding began after the dry dock has been cleared.
In this photo, the first of the water begins to flood STX's giant dry dock.
This photo was taken about 6:40pm (local time) showing the water level beginning to rise (note the water level on the propellers compared to the aft photo above) and the effects of a late afternoon snow storm.
The operation continued on Saturday with towing the ship to the finishing dock.
