What could be better than having the entire world just off the coast of Dubai?

Having The Universe, of course.

Nakheel, the developer already bringing construction projects such as the Palm trilogy, The World and the Waterfront to the Arabian Gulf has announced its latest project.

The Universe.

Designed to look like the sun, the moon and the planets it will, according to early artistic impressions, be an island reclamation project located between the Jumeirah coastline and The World.

We’re going to have to wait a while - The Universe will take around 15 to 20 years to build - but Time Out can’t wait to planet hop, swim too close to the sun and beach on the moon.

What next for Dubai? The Galaxy? The Milky Way?

Let us know your thoughts on what could be the most ambitious mega-development to hit Dubai yet.
