Today, we celebrate an extraordinary milestone: Day 60 of our journey to break the record for the longest continuous stay underwater in a fixed habitat!

We’ve officially reached the halfway point, and this moment marks much more than just a numerical achievement, it’s a powerful testament to human ingenuity, resilience, and the boundless possibilities of sustainable ocean living.

What started as an ambitious vision has become a remarkable reality. The underwater room, a marvel of modern engineering and sustainable design, has proven itself capable of supporting life beneath the waves for extended periods. Its innovative construction, blending functionality with harmony, has not only sustained this record-breaking endeavor but also opened doors to a future where sustainable ocean living becomes a possibility for all.

11 meters below the surface, this unique habitat is much more than a feat of engineering. It’s a living laboratory, fostering research and innovation; a sanctuary for marine life, blending seamlessly with its underwater surroundings; and a beacon of hope for a future in which humans coexist with the ocean in harmony.

Reaching Day 60 is a celebration of perseverance and vision. From the innovative technology that ensures safety and comfort to the unwavering determination of Rudiger Koch, our pioneering resident, every moment of this journey has been fueled by innovation and the human spirit. Rudy’s adaptability and dedication inspire us all, reminding us that the greatest achievements often come from embracing the challenges that seem impossible.

This halfway point is also an opportunity to reflect on the broader significance of our mission. Beyond breaking records, this journey shines a light on the untapped potential of the ocean as a resource for sustainable living. Every day spent beneath the surface sparks new conversations about marine conservation, sustainable tourism, and the role of engineering in creating a better, more harmonious future.

With 60 days behind us and 60 still ahead, we’re excited to continue redefining what’s possible.

We invite you to join us on this extraordinary journey as we forge ahead toward history. Celebrate Rudy’s incredible achievement, follow our updates, and immerse yourself in the story of the underwater room, a story of resilience, innovation, and a future where humans and the ocean thrive together.
