Each houses its passengers in a sphere, the best shape for withstanding extreme water pressure. Alvin's new titanium-alloy sphere, only two inches thick, is identical to another that withstood pressure to 22,500 feet when test- ed by the Navy. Her self-contained variable ballast system (above) depends on pumping water in and out. Should Alvin become en- tangled, her passenger capsule and conning tower, or sail, can disengage and float to the surface (right center).
