Neutral Boyancy Laboratory (NBL)

Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory is a giant pool 40 feet deep by about 200 feet long by 100 feet wide. It is used to simulate weightlessness. They were training on some aspect of a future mission.
Safety divers dive in shifts to watch over the astronauts.

This is part of the space station that they keep adding new pieces to.
