The World

In Hesperia, California, architect Nader Khalili created a housing movement for the future. Khalili, who passed away in 2008, prototyped his dome-shaped adobes on a commission from NASA for a lunar colony.   Then he realized that his “superadobes” could take root on Earth.   Studio 360’s Eric Molinsky visited Cal-Earth with some friends who dream of living in giant igloos made of dirt. (Originally aired: April 18, 2008)
