World's 1st Self-Sustaining Underwater Habitat
[Edit]
[Edit]
Lloyd Godson from Australia spent almost two weeks in a cabin under a lake. Food and drink were brought by divers. Godson was supposed to ride a bike to generate electricity and use algae to produce oxygen. After 12 days in world’s 1st self-sustaining underwater cabin, the 29-year-old adventurer became also the winner of a $40,000 competition organized by Australian Geographic magazine.
Breathing air provided by algae soaked in his own urine, "aquanaut" Lloyd Godson spent 12 days living in a yellow steel capsule submerged in a flooded gravel pit.
The 29-year-old's claustrophobic ordeal was intended to shed light on the practical and psychological challenges of living in an alien environment.
