It's 35m deep - for comparison recreational scuba divers go up to 30m deep and professional scuba divers up to 60m deep.
It will have to be well engineered and difficult to repair compared to a land facility, but nothing compared to like the space station.
Very cool idea, after 25 years there should be significant cost savings overall.
except that they can't just repair or replace any hardware. and even if nothing breaks, in 25 years the hardware will be incredibly obsolete. have you tried using a 25 year old computer to do something as basic as browsing the web?
The space station only has to withstand 1atm of pressure and isn't subjected to anywhere near as much risk of corrosion.
