Sea Lab 1, 60th Anniversary with Man in The Sea Museum’s, Steve Mullholland
On a February day in 1969, off the shore of northern California, a US Navy crane carefully lowered 300 tons of metal into the Pacific Ocean. The massive tubular structure was an audacious feat of engineering — a pressurized underwater habitat, complete with science labs and living quarters for an elite group of divers who hoped to spend days or even months at a stretch living and working on the ocean floor. The Sealab project, as it was known, was the brainchild of a country doctor turned naval pioneer who dreamed of pushing the limits of ocean exploration the same way NASA was pushing the limits of space exploration. As Americans were becoming entranced with the effort to land a man on the moon, these divers, including one of NASA’s most famous astronauts, were breaking depth barrier records underwater. Sealab tells the little-known story of the daring program that tested the limits of human endurance and revolutionized the way humans explore the ocean. Listen to this Amazing episode featuring Scott Mullholland, director of Man In The Sea Museum.

Customer Reviews
Yee
Very amazing podcast for baby divers to listen to! I cant wait to hear more about offshore from yall
Love the show!!
Amazing!! This show is a great diving show! And love hearing about Long Beach! Dive dive dive!
Outstanding
By far the best podcast for divers out there. Been listening since the first episode and it has only improved with each episode. As a diver who moved into the office from the field, I’ve even learned some stuff I didn’t know as well as handy advice for the new roll I’ve taken on. I will say I think the chamber run mini episodes should be done as a breaking news type thing i.e. such as the loss of one of our brothers/sisters in the field or some game changing news about the industry as whole, just my two cents. Keep up the great work and will be standing by for the next one to drop!
