The site is Tennessee Reef off the coast of the Florida Keys. Vanguard will allow scientists and researchers to break free from the strict time limits of traditional surface diving. Featuring an integrated moon pool for entry and exit, it lets aquanauts camp out in the marine canopy of the ocean, embarking on daily 6-to-8-hour dives and processing scientific samples directly inside the habitat without bringing them to the surface.<\/p>\n<p>Welcome to the new era of aquatic humanity.<\/p>\n<p>Timestamps:<\/p>\n<p>0:00 \u2013 Introduction: The Goal to Make Humans Aquatic<br \/>0:35 \u2013 What is Vanguard?<br \/>1:15 \u2013 Undersea Technology &amp; The Ambient Moon Pool<br \/>2:10 \u2013 Deploying at Tennessee Reef<br \/>2:45 \u2013 Revolutionizing Marine Science &amp; Coral Restoration<br \/>3:30 \u2013 Space Analog &amp; Elite Team Training<br \/>4:15 \u2013 The Future: Inspiring the Next Generation of Explorers<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>FIND OUT MORE at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.deep.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DEEP.com\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In this video, New Scientist CoLab partners with ocean engineering company DEEP to follow the deployment of Vanguard,&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":520499,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[242,85,46,141],"class_list":["post-520498","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-environment","tag-environment","tag-il","tag-israel","tag-science"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/520498","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=520498"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/520498\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/520499"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=520498"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=520498"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=520498"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
