Description

An article written by local columnist Dorothy Eedy titled "Columnist visits Biosphere 2: Airtight structure sustained by seven ecological systems". This article is about Eedy's tour of the Biosphere 2 complex. Biosphere 2 is a research facility located in Oracle, Arizona used for the ongoing study of Earth and its ecological systems. It was first built to serve as an artificial, closed ecological system where a team of eight scientists lived and studied in isolation for two years from 1991 to 1993. Eedy describes her tour of the facility including viewing the rice field and rainforest biome area.
