This would make quite a movie!

It is stated in the Holy Books that God is our Witness if there isn't a human one at the time.. This is when the "Just Desserts" will be served up on Judgement Day

Cringed every time you called Bill Drummond "lead singer" 🤢🤮😂ngl, visceral reaction. He is one of the greatest living artists art in its true menaibg. The man is a genius not a singer. U don't get what art is

So you are telling me that Jane Pointer lost the tip of her pointer? 😂 You can't write that stuff.

Brilliant story.Dolores Cannon has said that aliens use symbols rather than words.Worth checking her out

Whatever the ins and outs it’s a cracking good story.Well narrated Thanku.

What a terrific and sad story at times.Beautifully told Thankyou.

Oh, wow.

What a fascinating story. Thankyou so much. A great experiment and a valuable one. However, in hindsight gathering together a bunch of high functioning adults is a pretty lopsided selection of people to put in a 'confined space' for 2 years. How about some babies for starters..... some machine operatives.....some cleaners....a person who loves to do laundry.....a chef? ......a person for spiritual guidance.......OK a hell of a lot more than 8,,,,,,,and then the mice......The biosphere provides an abundance of leather and protein, albeit in a tiny form......In some parts of the world, and not unsophisticated parts, people still eat rodents and cockroaches..... Also of course, secluded communities have existed for millennia. Its a real testament to the people involved that they were able to overcome their differences and grow to love the space. The mutability and adaptability of the human spirit.

"Do not recommend channel" ✅

Biosphere Mars will be necessary before a group of people are sent to Mars. Theory is a good starting point, but a real experiment brings out all the flaws of a theory. Information from previous biospheres experiments will be very important.

Lovely!

NOT A FAILURE. CUDOS!! AND THANKS!!!😮

Meanwhile, back in realityland, ableds have forced immunocompromised people to live in solitary confinement for over 4 years now (with no end in sight) because our lives are worth less to you than the minuscule amount of effort required to cover your filthy disease holes 🤷

30 years later….. none of their climate disaster predictions came true.

Wait so biodome could have actually happened if two stoners had snuck in.

I remember this project. I watched the TV coverage and felt it was biased against it. This was definitely a result of trying to conceal mistakes. They should have shown the problems and solutions, the ones that needed external intervention, like the mouse traps would have highlighted where things went wrong that weren’t anticipated. Highlighting the difficulties would have shown the project was an experiment, that it was very difficult. An explanation that a CO2 scrubber was installed as a safety device to protect the crew’s health would have been a simple disclosure that would have enhanced the project’s credibility. A mission on the Moon or Mars wouldn’t have been unsupported. So, Biosphere 2 shouldn’t have been expected to have been wholly self supporting from the beginning.

It's a shame that Merlin's board games are not available to the public anymore. Perhaps there is enough information yet intact for people to create DIY versions of the game and play it to unlock its mysterious potential?? I personally cannot abide games normally, because life is so short, and I never have any time to waste in frivolous jack-assery, but in this case I might be willing to make an exception. I am open to the idea that the game may have been based upon channeled information, as channeling is a well-established reality, (in my opinion,) and I believe that many of humankinds' greatest creative achievements are actually channeled from a higher plane, so to speak. Yes, the Muses are real, and so are the aliens, so why not a board game with occult and psychic properties? As for the crop circle phenomenon, I think that anybody who researches it seriously will soon be forced to the conclusion that they cannot all be made by hoaxers, and that some non-human intelligence is actually at work from time to time. I believe that many "true" crop circles have been witnessed being constructed, in mere moments, while strange lights flickered and swooped about the fields. If these phenomena do indeed come from a nonhuman intelligence trying to communicate with the human race, then any hoaxer who waddles forth to flatten crops in an attempt to muddy these waters is comparable to a desecrator of sacred ground. In this and in all other arenas in which they fling their metaphorical poo, hoaxers reveal themselves to be the utter wastes of oxygen that they are. A pox on all hoaxers, says I! Why would anybody spend real time and energy just to perpetrate a public lie? The truth is far more exciting, and the truth (in my opinion,) is also sacred, so hoaxers are an example of humanity at a very low ebb of intelligence and decency. Anyway, I loved this video, and I thank you for creating it. Apologies for the editorializing and pontificating. I believe I've consumed a bit too much caffeine this morning. All the best, N.

I feel like this project would have done better to have been quietly executed, well documented, and then presented to the world after the fact as an initial experiment. But, yeah. Hindsight…

Bio dome ❤ Save. Mahi mahi

Ask people to subscribe and like at the end of your video. No one likes or subscribe unless the like the video and no one know if they like the video if you ask at the start!

This was an experiment. Experiments are there to try. Hardly any experiment turns into full success, and they don't have to. Experiments are a means of learning. Humans use the wheel since millennia, but we still tweak them, make improvements etc. That doesn't mean the first wheel failed, it only means it was a first step. I find it rather odd from media to actually expect everything to run perfectly smooth, because had ever even tried before.

U R about to blow up bro Good quality channel You should have 100k subs by now!

😎

“Viva La Bio Dome”!

Fascinating! I vaguely remember the publicity around this project at the time but I didn't know the details and outcome until now. I guess it was at least partially successful. One problem, I feel, was the hype when it would have been far better to have gone into this endeavour with a completely open mind as to what might ensue. It would be interesting to repeat this experiment somewhere else and under much more rigorous scientific direction as we know so much more about how ecosystems function, etc, and the lessons learned from Biosphere 2 would hopefully not be wasted second time around. Peter, all your channels deserve to be more widely subscribed! You are a consummate story teller and far, far better than many better known channels. I look forward to seeing more!

This sounds like its full of smear campaign. It an experiment sometimes people act very weird its not like its public dollars. My only real criticism is that they should have started with a smaller time scale. 2 years is massive. 3 to 6 months should have been a real goal at first. With all new ventures you can never been sure exactly what you will need or what obstacles you may face that you did not account for. Getting your feet wet after working out the kinks would have saved them a lot of heart ache.

We already live in contained system with a pressure of about 1bar. You don’t get a pressure without solid containment.

I live about 10 minutes away from this place, i haven't visited but they still do school field trips to it every year, my kids thought it was pretty cool , seems like a big waste of space to me lol.

A century now since the poor, miserable lives of the couple were snuffed out by fate. Tragic tale, Reverend. Excellent work in having highlighted the lives of the unknown but extremely creative couple.

T'was the KLF in the ice cream van, not the TARDIS.

The Bass family is from here in Fort Worth and they (at least 1 of the brothers) invested billions into this project. They have 2 skyscrapers in downtown with their own police force, and their family compound is about 8 minutes from my house (it is walled off with a big brick wall). They did(and still do) a lot for the city, but this was truly wild!

really enjoying your channels peter and your storytelling is great!!

They made a documentary this called bio dome. The lead scientist went crazy after they threw a big party in the bio dome and he tried to blow the place up

I love that place. It captures an adventurous part of me that would love to be locked in there working with the plants. If you have an opportunity to visit, you should.

No true scientist would look at this experiment as a failure….as loads of data were produced and immense lessons were learned. How anyone thought that this enormous undertaking should’ve remained rigid, and that, in example, unforeseen changes in the atmosphere shouldn’t be tended to, are not scientifically inclined. Biosphere 2 was a ginormous hypothesis, based on hunches and predictions, that ended up being huge learning lessons. The scientific method was obviously applied, but changes to the experiment should’ve been communicated to all involved, and best in real time. Biosphere 2 had no other precedent, it had no other comparable experiment to draw from, and that is why it enrages me when I hear “scientists” berate this very valuable undertaking. Science is all about putting a question to a test to see if your hypothesis holds…gather lots of data, analyze said data, and reproduce results. So many extremely important lessons were learned and it’s a shame that there was no recreated/tweaked experiment that was worth a damn. Just another example to leave business out of science.

It was interesting, and though it failed, there were still answers learned from that failing.

It was a flawed experiment, but that doesn’t mean it was bad, many first experiments fail, you learn from the mistakes and try again. That is the tragedy of Bioshere 2, we didn’t learn and try again.

Hey Bu-ddy

That's the most polite and succinct request to subscribe I've heard. Enjoyable upload. Cheers

Great video Peter, so interesting😊

I think that it has real scientific value and also on a psychological research level x

Ooh this looks good 😅😊 thank you for all you're hard work for us mere mortals x

Named after the Greek philosopher Heraclitus. Glory of Hera the Greek Goddess. I love that. It's probably a prototype for future settlements on the moon and Mars. I bet cabin fever set in. Good idea but we should look after our earth first on our own doorsteps.

Getting stories from the Rev two days in a row has got to be a good sign.

I'm not a superstitious person but I was about to put my phone on charge and leave it alone for a while and then I heard your intro. I am a Christian and love mysterious stories and videos. I am from Bristol and my surname is Lawes! Different spelling of course but it was enough to postpone the charge break lol

Looks like George Clooney had some work done. I daresay they did a bangup job though, he looks just like he did when ER was a thing.

You, good sir, are a master of narration. I have just picked up the first three of your Matt Hunter books. I'll get book four when I add books to my small library.

I believe he was visited.... I'm listening to this and thinking 🤔 It would make sense to pass it off as a simple boardgame as it's actually a communication device, just like the ouija board. Then he says that's what Merlin said to him!!... Everything we are and exist amongst is energy, every single last little thing is energy. The darkness has tried since the dawn of time to hide and suppress us from what's true and powerful. Of course they'd shut him down and imprison the man and defame him. Couldn't have the people finding out what they truly are....

Powerful and thought provoking! This is a very difficult subject and you covered it very well. I'm happy I found your second channel.
