Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
At 2:12, that fish is just amazed by the sheer amount of science being done.
This is seriously how far we only got with an aqualab? Someone needs to step up their game and fund more of this.
Looks amazing! I wonder why there aren't more of these considering how much faster they are able to do research and gather data.
Wish they would show how they shower or clean and where is the toilet
No thanks, I read Michael Crichton's Sphere...
It's a Sea Lab!
IS there a full length doc for this?
I'm upset that I've not seen a Sealab 2021 joke yet.
Science wise it is very cool. As far as sat-diving goes, that's really unimpressive. 100m is considered pretty standard for oil and gas divers. 63 ft (19 m) is almost too shallow. They just swam down. They didn't need to go into a saturation chamber or dive bell at all. They just swam at a more leisurely pace.
And for oil and gas, the divers do hard labour for 6 hours a day for 4 weeks at that depth. They live in a similarly sized pressurized tin can (depending on the vessel), but the depth is simulated in sat on the boat.
