WANTED: Astrophysicist

[Cyan]

Cyan wants to build a space ship.

Actually, i really want to build a deep sea self sufficient city for all the people in the world to enjoy. I think i'll start by building a one man submarine / space ship (virtually identical if well designed since pressure concerns are similar except with the water requirement) and then move around the world campaining for the idea of ocean habitation.

Once that takes off sufficiently and I have enough money (20esque million) i'll self design and order a central building for the city and rent out the office spaces there for near free to anyone who wants them (i'm sure game companies would be interested, then shops, then possibly a clinic) and so on.

With 20 million and my skills i could build a central building thats maybe 15-20 families inhabitation and rent it out for pennies on the dollar and offer free electricity, water and waste systems but require you to have a business that contributes to the whole and pay for your own food and a rent that should be sufficiently low to attract attention.

Once I get that going I'll try my best to make it as organic and self growing as quickly as possible by instructing the people on free or cheap ways to expand the city.

Then I'd withdraw to my pimped out super version of my ship and go into hiding somewhere in the deep sea floor and offer free teachings and initiations on any mystical tradition that i can do (and there are a few) to anyone who is able to locate my ship and contact me in some way.

Idea is to find a single island somewhere and expand so that the island is used as a ground support point + platform for tide power off the sides at depths.

In combination for a waste = energy + money plant
and
Seawater + filters + power = drinking water
and
Seacurrent + landmass to hold onto (island which looks like a giant mountain when looked at from space since its at continental shelf bottom and the top is maybe 100 meters wide?) + lots and lots of turbines = massive amounts of power.

Kind of form my own nation in the middle of the ocean with custom built 100-200k€ ships that can all go into hiding and survive a nuclear war.

That way. Anyone who wants can come and live in a society that is designed from the ground up to be not only unaffected, but literally not even notice a global nuclear war short of having to go underwater until the radiation clears. Beyond that it would be safe from any conceivable threat since no one could ever board one of these ships underwater.

Anyway, its kind of my solution to the "OH MY GOD WORLD ECONOMI COLLAPS!" bullcrap fear by simply pointing out how much ocean we have, how easy it is to colonize, and how good it would do for the planet (try venting uranium into human inhabited oceans. Might go a bit differently than "uninhabited wastes")

Thats what i'm dreaming of right now, school first though due to promise to father.

My current ship version in 8m wide about 5m tall and the living space is about 6m by 6m and 2.5m tall and would cost around 300-500kUSD to build and have all the normal amneties expected of a house of such price including internet, water, waste, food, heat, submersion (not really expected but look at new orleans, its practically a guarantee), AP armor (once again, not most houses can take a shot from a AK-47 and shrug it off, but once you design a ship for 500m depth, it can take a lot of things), about 20-50PC's worth cpu/ram/hd and a range of about 500-2000km and a maximum operative depth of about 700 but tested to no more than maybe 400-500.

Depending on how much you want to shell out i can build you one between 100kUSD private version to multi billion ocean complex. This 8m version i could probably comfortably sink 20 million into before it gets into the redicilous detail level like hand carved hull dragons painted with neon UV reactive paint making the ufo look like a giant rainbowcolored carved glowing dragon against the night sky.

come to think of it, that would look pretty awesome.

Anyway. We all have our "other" lives i'm sure. Mine just happens to be a science / politics / colonization / exploration junkie of unimagiable proportions. I designed this stuff in my dreams, literally, a decade ago
