If the implosion of the submersible Titan near the wreck of the Titanic hasn’t dampened your desire to explore the ocean, read this. From 2027, an underwater habitat called Sentinel will welcome researchers up to 200 meters deep off the coast of the south-west of the United Kingdom. For 28 days, they will be able to live in this fully modular “submerged space station”, because the Deep organization behind this project plans to add and remove parts of the installation according to the scientists’ needs.

Does living confined for a month with your colleagues in a submarine seem like a scenario worthy of a horror film? Rest assured ! The Sentinel has all the necessary comfort for a delicious stay. According to the synthetic images and the virtual visit distributed by the company, the craft will be spacious, will have a refined design, will have individual bedrooms, an equipped kitchen and multiple large portholes to enjoy the marine life while humming “Under the Ocean”! But not sure that we see much there at 200 meters deep…
Submarines launched from the Sentinel
If they wish to treat themselves to an excursion, residents can borrow one of the submarines developed by Deep and launched directly from the Sentinel thanks to their adapted architecture. “Through its innovative technology, Deep will allow scientists to operate at depth for extended periods of time and we hope that, in one way or another, it will contribute to our understanding of this environment suitable for life,” he said. said Steve Etherton, CEO of Deep, quoted in a press release.
Unless it falls through, the organization’s project might pave the way for underwater habitat for individuals and, initially, wealthy tourists. In May 2022, L’industrie c’est fou introduced you to the giant submarine project with a capacity of 120 people from the company U-Boat Worx. To satisfy all the desires of the billionaires who rent it, the machine has several configurations: casino, restaurant or even reception room for weddings!
