work with the Sealab program, three experiments in the 1960s that validated saturation diving — a technique that reduces the risk of decompression sickness and greatly advanced deep sea diving and rescue. The project, often called “the underwater Right Stuff,” centered on aquanauts who spent weeks in underwater chambers. This experiment offered insights into psychological and physiological strains humans can experience and endure living in extended isolation. Mazzone, who conducted many of the experiments on himself, was awarded two Legions of Merit for this work, and many deep water diving protocols he established remain.
