Observatory Installation

Underwater observation is a crucial part of ocean research, but can be extremely tricky. Humans are obviously not built to breathe underwater, so creating a livable habitat for them takes time, thought, and effort. Sensors must be installed to indicate things like oxygen levels and seismic activity. Since scientists will be housing there, they needst only a laboratory  but also places to eat and sleep. You must also take into account the dangers of the deep sea. For example, if you were stationed next to an active underwater volcano, precautions would need to be taken. The hardest part must be installing a successful observatory without disrupting the ocean's wildlife and environment. Observatory installation comes with a lot of hard work and responsibility  but if it's done right, it truly benefits scientific research.
