Here’s another cool acquisition for your home or office desk if you’re a science enthusiast: your own self sustaining ecosphere!
The Self Sustaining Ecosphere comes in a permanently sealed glass sphere. This ecosystem is the result of many years of experiments regarding self-sustaining life in the NASA laboratories, and contains a carefully balanced mixture of air water and nutrients and three forms of life: shrimp, bacteria and algae. The shrimp feed on bacteria which synthesize nutrients for the algae. The algae produce oxygen for the entire ecosystem. The ecosystem functions without problems for at least three years, which is the lifespan of the shrimp population. The algae and bacteria live indefinitely.You’ll certainly find yourself watching this wander of science for hours.
The Self Sustaining Ecosphere is 4 Inch in diameter and costs around $90.
