Doomsday Seed Vault Has Opened Its Gates
Few hours ago the Doomsday Seed Vault, in Svalbard, Norway, opened its doors. I remember reading about it about half a year ago in Wired and I got impressed. This is basically a special vault that is built to hold, with top most security, seeds from every plant that exists on Earth. From its name “Doomsday” I imagine its purpose is to overcome any future plague or ecological devastation.
The opening ceremony was broadcast live. The photographs from the vault are impressive to say the least and they remind scenes from science fiction movies.
See below a video from the construction of the vault and if you want to see today’s ceremony and see the vault complete then go here
