The bunker experiment was a scientific experiment that began in 1966 to test whether humans, like other species, have an intrinsic circadian clock.[1] It was started by Jürgen Aschoff and Rütger Wever of the Max Planck Institute for Behavioral Physiology and later taken over by Jürgen Zulley.[1][2] Participants lived in a bunker for multiple weeks while scientists measured their daily rhythms in many variables.[1][3] The main conclusion of the experiment was that humans have an intrinsic clock with a period greater than 24 hours.[3] The experiment also established many features of this clock[2] and paved the way for future circadian studies.[4]
