The Italian company Jet Capsule presents its new floating capsule project. After the "Jet Capsule", a mini-yacht in the shape of an egg for a ski lift, here is the UFO, the Unidentified Floating Object.

The UFO is a floating solar house composed of an electrically charged water jet engine, located at the bottom of the hull and capable of moving the floating structure. Spherical in shape, it looks like a flying saucer with a large circular terrace, equipped with wind turbines and even a garden.

Inside, there is a living room and a kitchen, located on the main deck. On the lower level, located under the sea, are the bedroom and the bathroom. From your bed, you have a direct view of the ocean thanks to a large window!

The UFO can be customized according to the owners' wishes. A bicycle path can be added all around the bubble or the trees planted in the garden.

This floating UFO is therefore a ship, capable of moving at a speed of three knots. With a diameter of 12.5 m, it functions thanks to the use of natural elements: sea, wind, sun. Completely autonomous in energy, it is equipped with hydraulic turbines and uses wind turbines and/or solar panels. Finally, a water generator allows the salt water to be de-anilized and rainwater to be made potable.

Thanks to a special anchoring system, the designers stated that the UFO could retain its full stability, even in rough seas.

Currently, Pierpaolo Lazzarini and Luca Solla, founders of Jet Capsule are looking for investors to develop a prototype.
