Spelunking in a different CAVE

I dug this photo out of my archives this last week and enhanced it a bit with Photoshop.  This was taken when there was still a CAVE ("Cave Automatic Virtual Reality") system on the IUB campus.  The goggles and a special tracking system allowed you to move around inside the image being viewed (in this case a large molecule).  I am not sure why I am down on my knees---
I can assure you that I never worked with any molecules that complex.  We just used them to impress visitors and make people think we were smart.
