What if we took everything that sustains life on this planet, and shrunk it down to one small bubble? Earth’s biosphere stretches about 20 km (12 mi). From the deep-sea vents in the ocean into the atmosphere. This is where almost all life exists. If we ever want to live in space, or settle Mars, we will have to recreate this extremely complex system. What would you eat? Would you have garbage? What would be the biggest threat to your health?

I’d be down
Why do i keep hearing Pauly Shore say "Viva Las Biodome" LOL
Because of course you used footage from the Pauly Shore classic, Bio-Dome.
If only everyone could be God 😐
why is the narrators audio blaring my speakers out???????????
I want to see a biosfier in other planets
In order for a biodome to be sustainable, it would probably have to be at least several kilometers in diameter.
You need to gradually build it up. Not all at once. Minimise the concrete and go for granite.
Then the movie where they guy grow potato up in space was shit then…all fiction
What if what is you real name?
I sort of feel like that in my little apartment in downtown Hamilton mostly because I’m disabled a stroke and cardiac arrest and colon cancer survivor and use a wheelchair when I’m outside
The goat will eat all your vegetables and you need to get them pregnant constantly to get the milk since it’s made first for their babies, then you’ll have more goats to feed and you’ll end up with just goats
7:46 I wanna live in her biosphere
We do.
Reminds me of the movie Bio Dome.
What if we were reborn after we die?
I successful biosphere would need specialists in many fields , plus regular people to do the cleaning, agriculture, taking care of the animals, as well as people naturally entertaining to defuse the conflicts and keep the peace. Would probably need to be a lot bigger than their thinking. Have shifts working around the clock and not giving up when things started to get bad figure out how to solve them quickly and be ready for similar future failures. 120 people doing a 10 year study inside one.
It failed because it didn’t have pauly shore and Stephen Baldwin
How can you not live in a biodome Can only go so far in this ocean But you can survive outta space with no problems even for months. That’s like how in the hell Egyptians are all white in the land of black.
uhm… im not sure you can GROW rice…
Imagine if the next social experiment would be to recreate an artificial world of 15 miles in diameter in space.
Do mermaids 🧜♀️ still exist?😮
The Simpsons and The Truman Show
Enough said
The design and thin line of balance of our world is amazing. If you considered the vast complexities, you must believe in a Divine Creator.
Is it just me but the woman wit the backpack and jeans was breathtakingly gorgeous..ijs
This would be difficult
The people who believe that earth and life on earth came into existence accidentally should at least watch this video.
Homer simpson dome
They should use Aeroponics or Vertical Gardening in Biosphere’s to help take up less space. Just an idea :3
I thought he mean turn earth into one giant biosphere.
And then people say it was created by an explosion, what a creative explosion that was.
Well there is aquaculture now
The sad part is that they weren’t even scientist and one of them left for medical attention and came in with 2 duffel bags cheated
ok, so it’s impossible to live on mars!!
Please do what if we are just an existence to someone dream
have they include and actual farmer instead of just researchers and scientist?
what if all living species including us we’re petrified without knowing the cause?
(based on anime named dr. stone)
What if there was no salt water ??🤔

Would the MOXY oxygen priducing machine help?
Where is biosphere one
Algae for oxygen?
Vermiculture for manure?
Mealworms for complete protein & Vitamin B12?
Some cockroaches are edible at least by insects that are more edible to humans?
Recycle water with carbon and passive solar?
Thank you
What if I was happy?
Just don’t let Pauly Shore in and you’ll be fine.
what is the name of that movie he kept showing clips of?
