It's been 25 years since four men and four women embarked on an unprecedented mission to live inside in Biosphere 2 for two years.
On September 26, 1991 they entered the futuristic glass and metal structure in the Arizona desert marking the beginning of one of the most exciting and controversial experiments of the 20th century.
On this episode of History of the 90s we look at how the Biosphere 2 mission went from a media darling to what scientists called a colossal failure.
