What is it?
A Sea Tent for Marine Biologists to research the deep-sea animals. More than 80% of the ocean remains unexplored. Because it is difficult to protect what we don’t know 7% of the world’s oceans are designed as marine protected areas. But we need more investment and stations for the researchers.
Where is it?
This Marine Shelter is designed to be sitting on the surface of the Deep Sea in the Gulf of Mexico.
The University of Southern Mississippi has a Gulf Coast Research Laboratory, we aim to place a Deep Sea tent below this laboratory so that researchers and biologists can reach the location easily and conduct their research both above and below the water.
