Description: American aquanaut and engineer Berry L. Cannon inside the SEALAB II underwater habitat at 205 feet depth off La Jolla, California, working on the headset of the helium pitch voice unscrambler. Cannon has electrodes on his head for medical monitoring. Dents in the chow mein noodle can under the bench are due to high pressure in the Sealab habitat. Cannon would later die of carbon dioxide poisoning during the SEALAB III project. From http://archives.starbulletin.com/2002/03/31/news/story5.html. Credited to Associated Press, but caption reads "Diver Berry Cannon is shown inside SeaLab in this U.S. Navy handout photo taken on Sept. 5, 1965." The photo was also published in the books Groups Under Stress, Living and Working in the Sea, and Challenge of the Seven Seas.
