Notes

Caption from Oceanus magazine, Vol. 46, No. 2, Pg. 24:
On a clear day, recovering an underwater vehicle could be relatively easy. "Clear," in this case, referred not to the sky, but to the ocean. Using sound signals, scientists guided the robotic vehicle Puma to surface in a calm, open pool of water in the ice pack and head right toward WHOI engineer John Kemp in a crane-operated basket, almost like a good dog coming home to poppa.
