You might find the following blog interesting:

That looks just... just horrible. ._.

For the hamsters that is. Other than that interesting.


But what is the point of this experiment?

It won't really solve the production of energy, depth issues, or air even given the size of the device let alone supporting a city of potentially thousands so is it just for fun or something. .___.

Well, according to the author, as a result of that blog:
"I've been recruited as part of the crew of the Atlantica Expeditions, a nonprofit organization founded by a NASA bioengineer which intends to establish the first permanent undersea colony."

Oh.

But what's the point of this experiment; to get that 50,000 dollars? dramallama

Wouldn't we deplete the oxygen levels in the ocean, thus making the water around us more acidic?

Well, possibly, if the hydrogen bonded to like say, water, but I don't think you can just make an Acid out of just raw water...

But!

We could contain the hydrogen anyways possibly, for fires and stuff.

Although we're best off not doing that.

Actually we're best off making a giant tube to the surface so we don't have to worry about that.

It would need to be protected some how though; would be interesting to drop stuff down and measure times and stuff, as well, if it didn't become too big of a hassle.

Would need guards around it and it would need to be at least like, 100 feet above sea level.

And oxygen development devices would still need to exist; but it would be nice for most of the time.

I'm just saying since I studied the effects of low-oxygenated levels of water in the ocean for a final in biology. With less oxygen in the water, it is easier for CO2 levels to react with the ocean water, creating Carbonic acid. Carbonic acid isn't as corrosive as sulfuric acid, but it will still denature everything that animals are used to in their current environment.

Well luckily a lot of these animals practically eat carbon dioxide so we should be fine! blaugh

We could just do it over a vent or something maybe. 3nodding
