After a demo of our current full-face VR snorkling mask setup and a discussion about transferring it to a professional diving mask, the main focus of the meeting was to make plans for a visit to EACs Neutral Buoyancy Facility in May and talk about the requirements that need to be met by then in order to have astronaut trainees experience our underwater VR mask.
