				 In a few years, you may be able to see Alexandria the way it once was &mdash; deep beneath the sea. The areas of classical Alexandria that contained the ancient world's biggest library along with Cleopatra's palace have sunk beneath the waves, but now it looks as if the United Nations may step in and help Egypt show off these structures in a unique underwater museum (architectural drawing above). Above the water, the museum will have illuminated sail-like structures and be connected to the mainland via fiberglass tunnel. Want to gawk at some of the underwater treasures that museum visitors might see?				<a href="http://io9.com/5051825/see-the-submerged-ruins-of-cleopatras-palace-in-egypts-underwater-museum" title="Click here to read more about See the Submerged Ruins of Cleopatra's Palace in Egypt's Underwater Museum">More&nbsp;&raquo;</a>
