What if we could explore the ocean like we explore space?
DEEP, a UK-based ocean technology firm, aims to “make humans aquatic.” Their main project is the Sentinel system, is an underwater habitat that allows people to live and work at depths of 200 meters (656 feet) for up to a month.
The Sentinel features interconnected modules that can be used for everything from studying ocean chemistry to exploring shipwrecks. Plus, it’s super flexible—whether it’s a six-person crew or a 50-person research station, it can be arranged in different setups to fit the needs.
DEEP’s ultimate goal is to establish a permanent human presence underwater, much like the International Space Station does for space.
