The document discusses two undersea habitat missions - Atlantica I and Atlantica II. Atlantica I will be a 90-day mission in 2010 with a 3 person crew living in the Leviathan Habitat. Atlantica II aims to establish a permanent 12 person colony called Challenger Station by 2013, informed by the results of Atlantica I. It provides details on the objectives, crews and qualifications of the explorers involved in the undersea missions, which aim to further space exploration through underwater analogs.

>>> ATLANTICA I : 90 DAY UNDERSEA HABITAT MISSION
The League of New Worlds announced that on 01 Aug 2010 three
aquanauts: Dennis Chamberland, Claudia Chamberland and Terrence
Tysall will attempt a 90 day continuous undersea habitat mission:
Atlantica I Expedition (AE I) from the custom-built Laiviathan Habitat.
The objectives of the mission are bold:
clean, autonomous life support;
responsible collaboration,
systems development,
infrastructures; and education
towards a “zero waste” culture.

>>> ATLANTICA II : PERMANENT UNDERSEA COLONY
Results from AE I will inform the Atlantica II Expedition (EA II)
mission requirements and systems to support a permanent
human-undersea colony of 12 aquanauts.
The select EA II crew will
live and work within the
sanctuary of the
Challenger Station:
a custom-built 1.6 ATA
constant pressure facility
planned to be operational by 2013. The spin off and spin in for
space-related architecture and analogue data will be significant.

happen if mission control fusses with a virtual world engine?
