   A deep sea diving circulation system for a diver at a diving depth from a station above the water level, comprises a closed respiratory gas delivery line from the station to the diver and a return line from the diver to the station. A CO.sub.2 absorber is arranged in the delivery line above the water level along with means for sensing the value of the oxygen in the delivery line and for supplying a correct oxygen replacement. The respiratory gas is circulated by a compressor which is capable of producing the necessary pressure difference for the level of operation of the diver in respect to the surface. A bypass line is arranged to connect across the inlet and outlet to the compressor and the flow cross-section therethrough is controlled by the pressure in the line circulating system. Cylinders with pressurized breathing gas are connected into the circulating line system before the diver&#39;s helmet through a pressure reducer having an after pressure lower than the pressure in the line system before the diver&#39;s helmet. The carbon dioxide control device is arranged in a bypass line in the system located above the water surface and so is an oxygen control device. A pressure reducer is arranged in the circulating line system and it is actuated by the diving depth pressure.

   A dome structure having a plurality of isolatable and preferably environmentally isolatable and inhabitable compartments. These inhabitable compartments are preferably capable of generating an environmental condition capable of supporting animal life and preferably human life. The dome structure comprises a first upper dome section and a first lower dome section which form a first environmentally isolated dome chamber therebetween. The apparatus includes a second upper dome section having a peripheral size smaller than the first upper dome section. A second lower dome section has a peripheral size smaller than the first lower dome section and is capable of being attached to the second upper dome section to form a second environmentally isolated dome chamber. This second isolated dome chamber is surrounded by and environmentally isolated from the aforesaid peripheral portions of the first and second upper dome sections and peripheral portions of the first and second lower dome sections to thereby ensure the isolation in the first and second dome chambers. In a particular preferred embodiment, each of the first and second dome chambers are of a size to be occupied by human beings. The structure includes means to generate its own source of power such as electrical power.

   A semi-submergible spherical residential structure adapted to be floated in a body of water. The structure features a substantially spherical shell having a hollow annular sponson affixed around its maximum girth such that the sponson is parallel to the water surface when the structure is floating in a body of water. The outer diameter of the sponson is sufficiently large so as to stabilize the shell when floating and the sponson has a width which is sufficiently great so as to provide adequate reserve buoyancy to the structure when the latter is weighted.

   An underwater building comprises a floating base that is to be fixed to a bottom under water or the sea and a building body is constructed on the base. The base floats on the water surface before construction of the body of the building, and the building body formed thereon has a double-walled construction having an opening between an outside wall and an inside wall. Water is selectively poured into and drained from the opening, and by its weight the building body is controllably sunk into the water. Only a gateway tower portion made in the upper portion of the building body is eventually left projecting out of the water.

   A complete design for a submergible cabin is submitted, which provides commodities and standards required for housing 8 people with absolute commodity and safety under the water for an indefinite period of time. The infrastructure for life support is located at the coast and the supplies are driven through pipelines anchored to the sea bottom. The level of water in the lower access, which works under the upside down cup principle, is controlled by redundant level sensors, which in turn allow access of fresh air to the cabin, sending to the coast part of the used air in order to not recycle the same air and evacuate bad smell, CO.sub.2 and heat from air conditioner and refrigerator units. The design of the shells and the structure allows its transportation in standard containers and then assembly at the dock, close to the installation place. The total construction from ceiling to floor is carried out with only 3 small forms due to the design is done with repeating pieces in order to reduce costs. While these aquatic habitats may be suitable for the purposes for which they were designed, they would not be as suitable for the purposes of the present invention, as hereinafter described.
