Russia Plans To Make A City in Arctic

Russia revealed its ambition to make the ‘city’ in the Arctic. A total of five thousand residents would be placed in areas with temperatures of minus 30℃ in winter.

The town is named Umka, will put people in a giant dome to protect them from cold. “This city will be an important strategy in northern Russia,” said architect Valery Razhevskiy whose designs have been approved Vladimir Putin.

Sources said as quoted by DM, the city will be a place of residence of the army, border guards and Secret Service staff as well as scientists and explorers. Ambition is part of Russia that began to seriously plan on mineral wealth in the Arctic.

In this city, they will enjoy a life of luxury, including all the amenities that can make people jealous.

So far, this is the first project of this magnitude, with artificial climate and comprehensive support of life in the history of mankind. Its design is based primarily on the International Space Station (albeit much larger – 1.5×0. 8 km), with a central transport links homes and laboratories…

“So far it’s the only project in the world with an artificial climate and integral life support – just like on the space station. Not only is it a new word in architecture, but in human living too. We have used aero and space technologies while creating it.” Said by Valery Rzhevskiy(Architect)
This amazing town is nicknamed as ‘Magic City’ and Russia has approved a nearly $ 8000 million to build this.
