DIVE 2017: A Great Success for Diving

Published

on

If this weekend’s DIVE 2017 is any indication of the popularity of scuba diving then it’s safe to say that diving is most definitely on the up! The Scubaverse team is just back from a fantastic weekend at the NEC in Birmingham. The show was packed out with people both days and we really enjoyed meeting Scubaverse subscribers and visitors, as well as catching up with old friends in the industry… and making many new ones!

The BiG Scuba Podcast Episode 173: DEEP – Making Humans Aquatic

Published

on

Gemma and Ian visited DEEP and were hosted by Phil Short, Research Diving, Training Lead, and were given a tour of the facility at Avonmouth and then over to the Campus at Tidenham.

DEEP is evolving how humans access, explore and inhabit underwater environments. Through flexible, modular and mobile subsea habitats that allow humans to live undersea up to 200m for up to 28 days, work-class submarines, and advanced human performance research, DEEP completely transforms what we are capable of underwater and how we conduct undersea science and research.
