A fascinating story of the futuristic complex Biosphere 2 – an architectural and ecological experiment.

Eight idealistic scientists closed themselves for two years in the 1990s in order to start an ambitious project of life simulation in a cosmic colony  inspired by the work of Buckminster Fuller and the sci-fi film Silent Running, not without a number of technical problems and controversies.
