All Dressed Up

In spring 2013, the crew of R/V Atlantis dressed the ship with flags in preparation for a private send-off of the ship and the newly upgraded submersible Alvin. After transiting the Panama Canal, Atlantis completed several pre-planned cruises with the remotely operated vehicle Jason. This week, attention returns to Alvin with the start of the certification process by the U.S. Navy, which owns the sub. (Photo by Lance Wills, Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution)
