4:41Why Australia bottles up its air
Curiosity Gap
- Bottling air sounds like a joke, but the racks of silver canisters show it's real.
- The cleanest air in the world explains what's inside but not why anyone would keep it.
- The diagonal split puts the stored air beside the headland it came from.
Title
'Bottles up' is a homely phrase for a scientific archive, which makes the idea sound stranger and more fun than 'collects air samples' would.

When your subject is a strange collection, show rows of the stored items on one side and the place they come from on the other. Describe it in the title with a plain, everyday verb.
