After entering The Stranger, you need to go all around the river until you reach The Reservoir. Get close to the dam and go underwater looking for a grate to pass through. Avoid crashing into the metal bars and get safely through to the other side and the achievement is yours! Congrats!

A shortcut is to instead take the elevator to the left of the docking pad on the Sun Side, the one that takes you above the dam.

1. Enter the stranger from the sun side. Step outside and look at the dam, to your left. Notice the flows coming out of the two grates. Launch your scout directly over one of them.
2. Go back out to the ship bay, then go to your right, into a passage behind the alien spaceship. Summon the elevator and ride it up. Go forward and turn right. You'll come out on top of the dam.
3. Stand over your scout and jump into the water on the upstream side of the dam. Thrust down and look for your scout marker to find the grate. Slip through.

Time: Before the dam breaks
Special note: None
Once you reach the dam, you can go deep in the water. The dam has 2 grates on the bottom, large enough to make you pass. Go inside one and get the trophy.
