Sealab: America's Forgotten Quest to Live and Work... |
"Sealab" tells the story of how the U.S. Navy program tried to develop the marine equivalent of the space station--and why the Navy pulled the plug. Hellwarth has interviewed surviving members of the three Sealab experiments in addition to conducting archival research to tell this first comprehensive story about the Sealab program.
