While this looks like some sort of surveyor's tool or perhaps a device for marine navigating by stars, this orange box is in fact the oldest thermal imager I have ever seen. For reasons I will explain in the video we will not be able to try it out but lets go over it anyways to see how it works.
In this video I do however demo what it *should* look like if it it WAS working. Credit due where credit is deserved to youtuber "Snowhorse420" for uploading those clips.
