Image Of the Day caption:
WHOI's research vessels Neil Armstrong (right) and Atlantis spend most of the year at sea and are rarely in their homeport of Woods Hole, Mass., at the same time. April 2018 was an exception. Both ships pulled into the WHOI dock on a rainy, chilly Friday the 13th. But that moment of togetherness didn't last for long: The Armstrong soon left again to service the Pioneer Array, part of the NSF-funded Ocean Observatories Initiative. Atlantis was scheduled to depart on its next cruise later in the month to conduct engineering trials and training exercises with WHOI's autonomous underwater vehicle Sentry and human-occupied submersible Alvin.
