The day begins
Sylvia Earle and staff from Time Magazine. It was a press day out to sea.

Also, Look for TIME magazine later this month for an in-depth feature on Sylvia Earle and her wish to establish and expand marine protected areas–in particular the Sargasso Sea.
Ms. Earle waves goodbye to the pilot boat that directs us out of the bay and away from calm seas.
The CTD (Conductivity, Temperature, Depth Measurement) of this leg. It went down about 3000 feet.
The contraption is wheeled into the garage and each canister is measured. The one that collected from the deepest ocean felt quite cold.
