Do you dream about living and working underwater? We do! So let's chat about it.
We cover a broad range of topics; submersibles, SCUBA diving, underwater habitats and living, and more.
We interview people from all spectrum of the underwater living and exploration.
Colonize The Ocean : The Engineering of a Deep Sea Habitat
The provided text outlines the complex installation of Vanguard, a pioneering underwater habitat recently deployed in the Florida Keys. Lead naval architect Chris Burden describes the sophisticated system, which consists of a stabilizing base plate, the living quarters, and a support buoy that provides essential power and communication. The project faced significant logistical hurdles, including unpredictable weather conditions, technical equipment failures, and mandatory pauses to protect local sea turtle populations. Despite these challenges, the team successfully utilized heavy machinery and divers to secure the structure to the seabed. This accomplishment represents a major milestone for the company DEEP, signaling the beginning of a new era in subaquatic research and habitation.

Colonize The Ocean - Shorts : What Is Happening To...Atlantica
Atlantica was designed to be the first permanent undersea human colony. This week on Colonize the Ocean, we look at where the project came from, who is behind it, and where it stands today.
In this episode:
Dennis Chamberland and his 30 years at NASA
The Scott Carpenter Space Analog Station, the two-person seafloor habitat he designed
How the Atlantica concept took shape around 2006 and the goals set for 2008 through the early 2010s
Why funding turned out harder than expected, and what's happening now
Similar designs, including DEEP's Sentinel program
Two books every underwater habitat fan should read: "Undersea Colonies" (Dennis Chamberland) and "Living and Working in the Sea" (Ian Koblick and James Miller)

Colonize The Ocean : The Atlantis of Hạ Long Bay
The Vietnamese conglomerate Vingroup is spearheading a massive development project in Hạ Long known as Vinhomes Global Gate, a vast ecosystem covering over 6,200 hectares. A central attraction of this endeavor is an expansive aquarium complex featuring diverse aquatic environments inspired by the Amazon and the mythical city of Atlantis. The project's most ambitious feature is a record-breaking underwater restaurant designed to accommodate more than 1,000 diners simultaneously. By utilizing massive glass architecture, the venue aims to provide an immersive 360-degree experience within a colossal saltwater habitat. This development represents a shift toward large-scale culinary tourism, moving away from the traditionally small and exclusive nature of submerged dining rooms. Ultimately, the site seeks to integrate luxury living with world-class entertainment and unprecedented maritime engineering.
