Abstract
Photograph of a diver, wearing a life vest, in the lock-out chamber of Hydrolab, an underwater laboratory located on the seafloor which allowed scientists to live and work underwater for extended periods of time. The lock-out chamber is an underwater airlock which allowed divers to enter and exit Hydrolab. At the time of the photograph, Hydrolab was located at a depth of approximately 50 feet in Salt River submarine canyon, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands.
