Nestled along St. Andrew Bay, the Fanselau Coil Facility is a prominent,
two-story, dome-shaped structure lined with towering wooden beams supporting
coils that create a magnetic field -- a setting appearing at once dated and
modern, and somewhat resembling a mad scientist's dream realized. One of
only two such complexes of its type in the world, the facility was developed
in the mid-1980s to simulate Earth's inconsistent magnetic fields, which
enables scientists to measure magnetic effects on unmanned underwater
vehicles and characterize foreign sensors over a vast area.
