Documentary of the Week

Exploring Life in Biosphere 2


Listen Later

“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.

— Raphaela Neihausen and Thom Powers
