People who dive in Alvin call this "the ball." It's the part of the sub that carries a pilot and two scientists to the seafloor for research. At this point in the overhaul, the team has removed it from its frame and has set it in a cradle. Note the three view ports; the one in the front (currently sealed to prevent scratching) is used by the pilot. (Photo by Tom Kleindinst, WHOI)
