The “Sea Orbiter” has been designed by the famous French architect Jacques Rougerie. Is Jules Verne ready to be reborn? A three-metre high model of the vehicle, built by MARINTEK in Trondheim, has actually been sent to the Jules Verne Exhibition in Paris. Source>>>>
“The real vessel will be 51 metres high, with a beam of 10-15 m. About two-thirds of it will be underwater, and that part will contain various types of laboratories for studies of the climate, and marine life and resources.” Source>>>>

CHINA TO BUILD 50 SQUARE MILE CITY IN THE USA
Says: China National Machinery Industry Corporation (SINOMACH), a China “technology zone” south of Boise, Idaho Airport with up to a 30,000 acre “self-sustaining city”.
What does China’s rise mean for America?
Thanks to the trillions of dollars that the Chinese have made flooding our shores with cheap products, China is now in a position of tremendous economic power. So what is China going to do with all of that money? One thing that they have decided to do is to buy up pieces of the United States and set up “special economic zones” inside our country from which they can continue to extend their economic domination. One of these “special economic zones” would be just south of Boise, Idaho and the Idaho government is eager to give it to them. China National Machinery Industry Corporation (Sinomach for short) plans to construct a “technology zone” south of Boise Airport which would ultimately be up to 50 square miles in size. The Chinese Communist Party is the majority owner of Sinomach, so the 10,000 to 30,000 acre “self-sustaining city” that is being planned would essentially belong to the Chinese government. The planned “self-sustaining city” in Idaho would include manufacturing facilities, warehouses, retail centers and large numbers of homes for Chinese workers. Basically it would be a slice of communist China dropped right into the middle of the United States.

GREEN FLOAT – a Floating City in the Sky
“Green Float
Looking for an oceanfront home but can’t find any affordable property? Japanese tech firm Shimizu (the visionaries behind Japan’s Mega-Pyramid) dreamed up this future model for aquatic living consisting of lush, kilometer-wide “cells” floating on pontoons in the Pacific Ocean near the Equator. Each cell (which could be linked with other cells) would house up to 50,000 people, both in the City in the Sky tower and in residential housing arranged around a cell’s perimeter. Forest and grasslands would enable farming and livestock cultivation, while power would be supplied by wind or solar energy—no shortage of that near the Equator.”
