Second Chance for Biosphere

摘要

After the holocaust, cockroaches and ants inherit the world. At least that's what happened inside the gargantuan greenhouse called Biosphere 2 after an ecological catastrophe brought the ambitious experiment to its knees. Biosphere 2 was intended to be a miniature version of the much larger biosphere we call Earth. Stocked with thousands of plants and animals, including eight humans, this landlocked Noah's Ark set sail for a two-year voyage of discovery in 1991. But the project ran aground on bad management and a host of unforeseen environmental disasters, some of which are only now coming to light.
