Strelasund

The Strelasund or Strela Sound is a sound or lagoon of the Baltic Sea which separates Rügen from the German mainland. It is crossed by a road and rail bridge called the Rügendamm in Stralsund.

The sound is nowhere much more than 3 km wide, reaching its greatest width towards its southeast end.

Helgoland Habitat

The Helgoland underwater laboratory (UWL) is an underwater habitat. It was built in Lübeck, Germany in 1968, and was the first of its kind in the world built for use in colder waters. The 14 meter long, 7 meter wide and 7 meter high UWL meant that divers were able to spend several weeks under water using saturation diving techniques. The scientists and technicians would live and work in the laboratory, returning to it after every diving session.
