This paper will discuss the potential danger of human expansion into the solar system with the current incomplete state of knowledge regarding Earth's complex ecological life support systems. The majority of space theorists see the vast resources of outer space as the key to our species' final release from biophysical constraints, providing solutions to ecological mismanagement and economic inequity across the planet. A critique of the Biosphere 2 experiment serves as the foundation for a contrary argument presented here. Recommendations for a new direction for closed biosphere research that would benefit our terrestrially bound society as well as our long-term future in space are then made.
