    Members of the project team watch from the pier Tuesday morning September 25, 2018 as crews finish the rigging necessary for STURGIS to be towed from Galveston, Texas to Brownsville, Texas for her final shipbreaking and recycling. Over the past three years in Galveston, Texas, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has been implementing the challenging and complex efforts to decommission the MH-1A — the deactivated nuclear reactor that was onboard the STURGIS vessel.

The ship dominates the frame in a wide panoramic shot, with its bow facing the right side of the image. The overcast sky and waterfront setting suggest an active or inactive military/government maritime facility.

The control panel appears to be from a power plant, factory, or similar industrial facility, featuring rows of circular dial instruments with blue label tags. The room is dimly lit, with the illuminated control panel serving as the primary light source.
    A large black-hulled vessel, likely a barge or tanker, is being maneuvered in a harbor or waterway under overcast, stormy conditions.
