Image of The Day caption:
Engineers in the Deep Submergence Laboratory at WHOI designed the remotely operated vehicle Jason II and its sidekick Medea ?shown here on the fantail of a ship? for scientific study of the deep ocean and seafloor. Medea acts like a weight between the ship and the vehicle, absorbing movement from above and allowing Jason II to roam without being affected by the motion of the surface ship.
