Albeit brief without much detail, found this interesting reference on how Jill Heinerth is doing some testing for NASA. All These Worlds Are Yours Except Europa - Diving - Gizmodo

Who said there's no place for geeks in diving???

I think its Oceanic Water testing, and involves volunteer divers and academia.
