[@CactusAtlas]

Thank you very much!

[@TravelswithVandSteve]

What a fantastic place. So great the university took it over so they can offer this experience. You’re right, it’s an optimistic futuristic vision.

[@CactusAtlas]

We're glad they took ownership too! It's such a great experience and so much to learn! 😊

[@SomeplaceOrAnother]

[@CactusAtlas]

It is! It's a super fun place.

Great Biosphere 2 share

[@CactusAtlas]

Thank you!

[@AFKDays]

HAHA, fun and educational video! Have always been interested in the Biosphere projects. Thanks for sharing!

[@CactusAtlas]

It's kind of a unique project, right? Thanks for watching and commenting! We always appreciate it. 😄

So wonderful that a unique place still exist. Botanical garden in St. Louis has rain forest exhibit that is hot and humid also. This is very reminiscent of this place. The lungs were really interesting on how they function and and you can understand why they were named lungs. Fascinating

[@CactusAtlas]

The lungs are super interesting and we wish they were opened to the public this time but totally understandable why they aren't. When we visited last time you can feel the pressure and wind howling through the tunnels whenever the door into the lung opens. It's impressive!

[@SwiftyTravels]

I remember this and I remember the Pauly Shore movie!!😂😂 Great information! The method in which they maintain pressure control is really interesting!

[@CactusAtlas]

Isn't is just crazy? I wanna know how someone came of with the idea of a large concrete slab suspended from the ceiling as it just blows my mind! 😄

[@KitschyTravels]

Very cool I have always wanted to come here

[@CactusAtlas]

It's a really cool place! You should check it out if an opportunity comes about one day.

[@PanhandleHopper]

Hahaha, nice Biodome References. I would have sworn it was filmed there too. Oh well, still a really cool place.

[@CactusAtlas]

It's been a good while since seeing that movie admittedly. I'm sure some outside shots might be on the movie though.

[@ThePlacesWhereWeGo]

Such an interesting place - would love to get out here someday

[@CactusAtlas]

We always enjoy going. It's such an interesting place to go to see things normally not seen in our Sonoran Desert. 😄

[@SwiftyTravels]

Oh a zipline is an amazing idea!!!

[@CactusAtlas]

Wahoooo! 🪂

[@JohnSmith-ef2sp]

Hey, the rain forest looks like my home state, Florida!

[@CactusAtlas]

Certainly a different environment here in the desert! 😅

[@luckyjanetravel]

look yummy lemon nice place friend say hi from Thailand

[@CactusAtlas]

Thanks for visiting

[@owlenfamily]

know what you mean. got the shivers walking out of kartchner caverns. awesome cave...but i remember the shivers the most. hey...when you going to kartchner caverns?

[@CactusAtlas]

Kartchner is an awesome cave! We've both been before and loved it. The trouble with that one is that they state on their website that photography and video are not allowed on the cave tours sadly so we've never pursued it. 😕

[@owlenfamily]

hmm...thought that was the case...then i watched videos from kgun 9, arizona highways, and a couple of little kids from socal. you need to call and let them know y'all are the world famous cactus atlas...and your audience demands a video of the caverns! 😄

[@CactusAtlas]

😂🤣😂 We'll gather some signatures. How can they say no? 🤣 Yeah, I've seen a few videos roaming around. I know they used to do photo tours (not at the moment) so maybe video is allowed then?

[@atribecalledjudah5436]

Viva Los Biodome!

[@CactusAtlas]

😄

[@gstiles7]

Did you try any of the sticky purple punch :D

[@CactusAtlas]

So THAT'S why some of the sections were closed...! 🤣

[@JasonJacobs317]

People could live on Mars if they built a few biosphere there!😮

[@CactusAtlas]

Indeed! The idea of that whole system is kind of amazing!
