The oldest terrarium  and the oldest self-sustaining ecosystem experiment #shorts #terrarium

Delve into the fascinating tale of David Latimer's groundbreaking experiment that began in 1960. Join us as we explore how Latimer planted a spiderwort seedling in a large glass bottle, sealing it tightly after adding water. Witness the astonishing journey of this plant, which remained undisturbed until 1972 when Latimer opened it only to add more water. Over time, what started as a simple plant trapped in a glass bottle evolved into a self-sustaining ecosystem. Learn how plants produced oxygen through photosynthesis, while bacteria decomposed dead plants to produce carbon dioxide, creating a delicate balance within this closed environment
