Oceanographic Magazine reports that China plans to construct a deep-sea research facility, or "deep-sea space station," roughly 6,000 feet below the South China Sea's surface by 2030. This underwater station will accommodate up to six scientists for month-long missions, primarily to study cold seep ecosystems and methane hydrate deposits. Researchers intend to establish a four-dimensional monitoring system using submersibles, ships, and seabed observatories. The project has sparked controversy due to territorial disputes in the South China Sea and the area's valuable resources, like methane hydrates and mineral deposits. The facility is similar to a US-led mission to build an "underwater space station of the ocean” off the Caribbean island of Curacao, with both projects aiming to advance marine research.#DeepSeaResearch #ChinaOceanStation #SouthChinaSea #UnderwaterScience #ColdSeepEcosystems #MethaneHydrates #OceanExploration #4DMonitoring #MarineTechnology #TerritorialDisputes #OceanResources #UnderwaterSpace #China #underwater #ocean

An article by DEEP explores the history of underwater habitats, highlighting key milestones and their impact on current underwater living technology. It begins with early projects like Glaucus, Conshelf, and Sealab, which demonstrated the feasibility and utility of underwater living. Cousteau's Conshelf missions showed it could be done with style, while the U.S. Navy's Sealab pushed the limits of depth, showing risks involved in subsea exploration. The piece then shifts to later habitats like La Chalupa and Aquarius, which focused more on marine research and NASA training. These historical advancements ultimately inform DEEP's current work to develop more autonomous and comfortable underwater habitats for scientific research. The text concludes by suggesting this new technology will vastly cut down on scientists' time, providing them more opportunity for research. #UnderwaterHabitats #MarineHistory #GlaucusProject #Conshelf #Sealab #JacquesCousteau #DeepSeaExploration #SubseaLiving #LaChalupa #AquariusReefBase #NASAUnderwaterTraining #MarineResearch #DEEPHabitats #AutonomousLiving #ScientificResearch #UnderwaterTechnology #OceanExploration https://discord.gg/jp5aSSkfNS http://atlantisseacolony.com/ https://www.patreon.com/atlantisseacolony
