Exploring Life in Biosphere 2 - a podcast by WNYC Studios

“Spaceship Earth” tells the story of eight researchers who locked themselves into the self-contained ecosystem of Biosphere 2 in the Arizona desert for two years. Filmmaker Matt Wolf documents the interpersonal dramas and scientific controversies with an approach that has more respect than ridicule for the grandiose undertaking.
