Documentaries & Donuts: "Spaceship Earth"

October 27, 2020, 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM @ Georgetown Charter Township Public Library Meeting Room AB

Join us for a new documentary each month on various timely and interesting topics. Please register in advance as occupancy is limited. Spaceship Earth (NR, 113 min.) In 1991, eight "bionauts" participated in a widely publicized ecological experiment. Volunteers with expertise in agriculture, science, and medicine, they decided to step inside a terrarium called the Biosphere 2 -- which replicated the biomes of the world -- and lock the door.

But they were plagued both by bad press and by doubt about a couple of the shortcuts they took. SPACESHIP EARTH explores how the Biosphere 2 experiment came to be, what went wrong, and what happened to the data from this study.

As her studies take her all over the city, she finds herself drawn to Greenwich Village's new bohemia, where she discovers the Heterodoxy Club--a radical, all-female group in which women are encouraged to loudly share their opinions on suffrage, birth control, and women's rights. Soon, Laura finds herself questioning her traditional role as wife and mother. But when valuable books are stolen back at the library, threatening the home and institution...
