Title
New York Times article "5 Women Scientists Start 2-Week Stay Under Sea"
Date
1970
Description
Full text of a New York Times article on the start of the Tektite II all-female dive team mission. The article seems to take a sexist tone in discussing the physiques and hairstyles of the participating scientists, and explains that a hair dryer has been provided in the habitat in a "concession to femininity."
