It was Sept. 7, 2008, six days before Hurricane Ike, the third most destructive hurricane in U.S. history, crashed into the Texas coast. Ike had already made landfall in Cuba as a Category 4 hurricane, and in the coming days would gather strength over the warm waters of the Gulf of Mexico. On land, teams of scientists, technologists and emergency coordinators were feverishly working on what would be one of the greatest scientific experiments of their lives.    (source: tacc.utexas.edu)
