Originally I just wanted to build a single chamber with air circulation and the basics, as proof of concept and as a neat model of how actual habitats work.

Somehow it snowballed into this, a four room colony which will generate power for LED lights via the exercise wheel (as a novelty, it won't depend on it) have surface power support for heating pads and lighting, and because some of you talked me into it (and I am easy to talk into this sort of thing) a clover grow-op. Like, the chamber on the right will have infrared grow-LEDs and a tube for watering the clovers from a surface squeeze-bulb.

This is getting absurd and I'm really fuckin' happy about it. It's taking my attention away from the Earth Rover project which is no good, but I can't make much progress on that until I move anyway.

Thanks for following along and nagging me to make this project more ambitious. I think, with what I've learned along the way, I will soon be able to buy a surplus water tank and build a habitat I can sit/stand in. Nothing too large as I need to be able to tow it to a lake or the coast, and it needs to be boat-towable to the location where it will be sunk, but something big enough for a futon, mini-fridge, microwave, book shelf and laptop seems doable.
