Dear Doc...
Having been retired from sat. diving for some time now I am curious as to where we are with respect to breathing gas development for great depths.
The last I remember was Duke U. experimenting with a variety of mixes around the 2200' level & I seem to recall they were stymied in gettting around the problem of he. tremors.
If memory serves me correctly ( not likely...my brain is now nothing but a froth of micro-bubbles! ) the deepest working dive logged in @ 1800'...have they gone deeper?
Your assistance is appreciated.
Regards,
D.S.D.
