aquanaut

1 While the Navy had an interest in science and exploration, it was mainly concerned with what aquanauts could do for the military, like recovering sunken aircraft, ships or downed submarines.

2 During their two weeks in the laboratory, the aquanauts will go on simulated spacewalks, operate a crane and perform other tasks of the sort astronauts would face in setting up a habitat on another planet.

3 The aquanauts spent Tuesday decompressing – a 15 hour and 45 minute process – then were debriefed at mission control on Wednesday morning before speaking to the press.

4 In 2002, Meir joined NASA’s aquanaut program, living under the surface of the ocean for five days.

5 He never achieved conventional fame, but he was the “ultimate aquanaut,” said Leslie Leaney, the executive director of the International Scuba Diving Hall of Fame.

6 If there's an armchair aquanaut, they will appreciate the view without the goose bumps.

7 Swimmers might make friends at the beach with other aquanauts.

8 And the next year she headed the first team of all-women aquanauts to live in an underwater habitat for two weeks.

9 Eventually, Cameron’s aquanaut tendencies bled into his movie career.

10 As the Neemo aquanauts practice for what the future might look like, NASA’s present will continue to unfold above.

11 The hatches are closed and the pressure inside is reduced over the course of 17 hours - any faster and nitrogen bubbles could form in the aquanauts' blood like popping a bottle of champagne.

12 Ari D’Agostino was joined by aquanaut Shirley Pomponi, a marine biologist at Harbor Branch Oceanographic Institute of Florida Atlantic University, and NASA astronaut candidate Jessica Watkins.

13 The program was discontinued that year when an aquanaut died while attempting to repair a leak.

14 The advent of the aquanaut meant that a vast and varied submerged frontier was open to human exploration.

15 Once the aquanauts are back at surface pressure, Aquarius is quickly re-pressurised, the wet porch is reopened and the divers can swim back up.

16 With specially pressurized containers, a aquanaut might even be able to bring living deep-sea microbes to the surface for study.

17 The vehicle had dropped to about 9400 meters when a loud bang reverberated through the cabin, shaking the two aquanauts inside.

18 The command ship’s first task was to find the deepest part of the Challenger Deep to ensure proper bragging rights for the aquanauts.

19 He now works at Liverpool University but has lost touch with his fellow aquanaut John Heath.

20 In September 1965 the underwater 'house' was plunged down into Plymouth Sound with the two aquanauts inside to prove that the 'pod' could support human life beneath the waves.
