Biosphere 2

Biosphere 2 Facility

One of 2 lungs that control the atmosphere within the facility

It is a 3.14 acre glass-enclosed facility
1996, 8 volunteers were sealed in the facility for 2 years.
they did many experments and all of the food was grown and produced inside.
This included chickens and goats.
One interesting thing is that they could only grow enough coffee beans to make one pot of coffee every 2 weeks.

Here are some of the pictures, enjoy
