OV has a terrarium in a bottle, this can be found on the windowsill in Center of Excellence. In the long term it is planned to be sealed, in order for it to become a closed cycle of water that can hopefully survive the potential lack of love from future board members. For now it is open, and watered regularly. It is not quite a biosphere, but more or less spheroid in shape.
