Octonauts

THIS IS A CHILDREN'S CARTOON, NOT 18+, SOME ANIMALS IN IT CAN TALK, AND DON'T CORRECT ME!

• Name of the base: "Octopod".
• Appearance: made in the shape of a giant Pacific octopus.
• Type: mobile underwater station - can move across the ocean.
• The main design feature: the side modules (compartments) can be retracted towards the main body - for example, during a storm or fast movement.
• The central section: three floors. At the top is the headquarters, in the middle are Shellington's laboratory, Peso's medical center, and Inkling's library, and at the bottom is the launch bay (moon pool) for releasing small spacecraft.
• Launch bay: functions as a "moon pool" - an open-bottomed space through which the GUPs exit directly into the water.
• Life support systems: water filtration, oxygen generators, heating using heat from engines.
• Control: autopilot controlled by Dashi, manual control - through a retractable cockpit, which is accessed by an elevator.
• Side modules: these contain the crew's bedrooms, the kitchen (under the garden), the games room and Tunip's garden.
• Connection between modules: flexible transition pipes (you can slide down them) and ladders.
• Power system: batteries in the launch compartment, charging from the engine during operation.
• History: The current Octopod is the second one; the first one crashed and became an artificial reef.
• Spin-off feature: Tweek has modified the base so that it can move on land.
