It takes a team onboard the R/V Neil Armstrong.  The crew and science party work side-by-side to conduct all the deployments and recoveries for the Pioneer Array MAB.  Here crew member Scott Loweth hooks the second Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) after its 20-hour transect and helps guide the vehicle back on board where it will be secured.
