| Sep. 26, 1991 | Four women and four men begin a 2-year stay inside a sealed-off stucture in Oracle, Arizona. The 3.14-acre bulding is called Biosphere 2 and is the largest isolated closed ecological system ever created. (It runs into problems including low amounts of food and oxygen, die-offs of many animals and plants included in the experiment [though this was anticipated since the project used a strategy of deliberately "species-packing" anticipating losses as the biomes developed], group dynamic tensions among the resident crew, outside politics and a power struggle over management and direction of the project. Nevertheless, the closure experiments set world records in closed ecological systems, agricultural production, health improvements with the high nutrient and low caloric diet the crew followed, and insights into the self-organization of complex biomic systems and atmospheric dynamics. On September 26, 1993, the eight people emerge from Bisophere 2.) |
