Umka
Russia plans to build a city deep inside the arctic circle housing 5000 residents, under a vast dome.
"The Umka designs are based on the International Space Station, but it is vast by comparison - just short of one mile long and 800 yards wide.
'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.'
Electricity will be supplied by a floating nuclear power station."
