Biosphere 2 ( the biosphere , not the non - real movie continuation ) was the orotund sealed surround ever created . It cost $ 200 million to build up and admit a million - gal fake sea . Now , its untamed interior has taken over .
The Biosphere was a act of a catastrophe , as detailed by the New York Times back in 1992 :
Scientists ridicule it . Members of the accompaniment squad resigned , charge in public that the endeavour was awash in deception . And even some gang members living under the glass domes , gaunt after considerable passing of weight , tempers flaring , this winter endanger to mutiny if management did not repair a grow stain on the project ’s repute .
Fast forward 15 long time , and it was falling aside and sold to private developers . In the future , it might be home to a development called “ Biosphere Estates . ” Because who would n’t desire to live in a run - down biosphere ? [ BLDGBLOG ]
