Last weekend I get home on Friday from a long and exhausting work week. I look to relax, yet notice the house is much warmer than usual. I check the thermostat and seeing the temperature is at 91.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Long story short, my AC unit had to be replaced. My weekend trip had to be cancelled, a hotel was in order for the weekend until the AC could be replaced on Monday, and I was looking for an alternative plan on Sunday.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Enter Biosphere 2<\/a>…..<\/div>\n
<\/a><\/div>\n
Previously, when I heard the word Biosphere, my mind went to the Pauly Shore cringe-worthy movie. Little did I know the science that actually went into the building of this place. You pay a twenty dollar entrance fee that includes a tour, which is worth it to help keep the research that scientists are conducting here going.<\/div>\n

The place didn’t knock my socks off, but it certainly is interesting and a perfect way to kill a few hours in the Arizona summer when your AC goes out.<\/p>\n

Do you know what Biosphere 1 is?<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
