UArizona's Biosphere 2: A look at three decades of climate research [View all]



ORACLE, Ariz. (KVOA) - Just about an hour out of Tucson is the world's largest controlled environment dedicated to understanding the impacts of climate change.

We're talking about the University of Arizona's Biosphere 2.

A two-year project inside Biosphere 2 that started in 1991, captured headlines around the world. While that experiment ended in 1993, the research at Biosphere 2 has continued through the years.

Biosphere 2 is 3.14 acres of science. Inside, human made ecosystems, dedicated to helping us understand the future of our planet.

A world within walls, where habitats grow and research thrives, built to better understand how our Earth operates.
