Did NASA have early release C= A4000Ts in their possession?

I was looking at NASA's Amiga history and spotted what looks like Commodore A4000Ts on their side in a picture of their 'Telemetry Center' hosted on the Obligement website. What do you think? They probably binned the tower doors but other than that they are C= A4000Ts surely? You can tell because the bezel is more curved than the AT ones

Did anyone grab one when they decommissioned them in 2006?

@BigD

These are the Micronik Amiga 4000 Tower.

A4000T

Micronik

You can call from the stripes on the button and the black part in the middle.

NASA used their Amiga's for life science monitoring on space missions. I also know they built their own Zorro boards to support those applications.

Cool stuff!
