It’s just a concept project, not truly what it pretends to be. Fascinating though… not only for kids.

For a moment I actually believed that they really had made an actual tunnel… As I understood from the CNN article, the tunnel is not a “real” tunnel. It consists of 2 HD webcams and a fiber optic broad band connection. It is quite amazing though… wow… makes you fantasy go back to your childhood. Anything is really possible, maybe just not the way you would imagine…

Thank you for the videos. I know quite well the place it is situated. :) I’d really like to go there. That tunnel makes me think about Jules verne’s work, I like so much.
I had searched for informations about going there, but I read it was opened until the 15th of june, and closed then for pupils classes and other visits. Still, my agenda is turning as magnetic changes…

Watching one of those videos, something came to my mind. Is this tunnel really passes under the sea? I will look at that. Because it is about a huge work to do. Today, we get the tools to reproduce an image from a place abroad to another, helped by satellites. Mirrors are used for a verly long time in photography as an example. And it’s unbelievable noone talked about much on news, as it was through the english-french channel.

Have a sunny afternoon.
