All we'd really have to do is import/generate a shitton of greenhouse gases. It'd probably take a few decades if we did it at chinese speed but eventually it could bulk up the thinned density of the Martian atmosphere for non microscopic life to survive.

You'd have to import literally EVERYTHING just to stay alive. Air, water, food, shelter... Mars is a dead world that cannot retain an atmosphere.

You might as well start a colony at the bottom of the sea. At least that way, you wouldn't have to wait six months for help if something went critically wrong.

No because Martian gravity is like 30% of what Earths is. I think that the best effort for colonization would be to continually sent a bunch of resources to an Earth like planet and work on both faster than light travel or stasis technology.

Terraforming Mars is way, way outside of what is currently achievable and due to the weak Martian gravity is isn't really worth it. If you know how to add more mass to a planet and terraform an atmosphere then go to NASA because they'll hire you. Unfortunately the obscene resources required and the small payoff means that it'll barely be worth it.

Terraforming Venus would be better but realistically terraforming anything is a shitty idea.

Ok cool but you'd have better luck just editing the genes of babies to make them have mutations or something. Much cheaper.

Anyone coming from mars will have brittle as fuck bones and you'd be able to beat the shit out of them do to their acclimatization of the martian gravity.

Fuck we don't even know what would happen to a fetus in utero in a low gravity environment lol.

We should definitely mine mars and maybe establish a permanent base there where people spend semipermanent time there.

If we can simulate Earth like gravity on a space station then it would be much more prudent to live on space stations rather than mars.
>>
>>74235542
>add more mass
You could also condense it or move more of the mass near the surface.
Some planets are less overall massive than others, but have higher surface gravity due to the weight distribution.
This is also impossible to do and a pointless comment.

You're 100% right on all accounts. I'm not denying this. I just want the hubris of a human controlled colony on the first planet we colonize (for growth or purely material/manufacturing reasons) to be a humorously hideous downfall. This is why the first time we reach out and establish a banner it can't be on an Earth-like planet. We will destroy it. We will learn from the process. Making sure we don't nuke the only naturally habitable one within several light years will actually sustain (and propagate) the human race. I'm half kidding when I say I want an invasion from Hell - I hate people in general and a challenger would be well appreciated. But if we're to survive, history has shown we need a fucking lesson in how bad shit can go. If we're to actually succeed I mean. Humanity's history can be boiled down to

>>74236710
Basically the rain would condense and fall as snow on the top of the mountain and create a cooler and more humid environment around the base extending far from the mountain. Also when the snow melts it provides the surrounding area with a lot of water.


Some big mountains could make large areas of desert habitable and farmable. Plus it could supply those dry areas populations with nice fresh water, I think a big problem with other ideas of permaculture is that it requires drawing water from already overstressed sources or large scale desalination which the long term effects would be to fuck the ocean and requires a lot of energy to maintain, also it's not really a permanent solution.

Being the 20th guy is like "who gives a fuck" but you accomplish a lot of cool and important stuff Being the 500th guy is the worst cause you are just now a worker bee and will not even be mentioned in the history books. It would be cool to the the 100.000th cause everything is established pretty well and you are like "cool I am on Mars".
>>
>>74236817
Honestly I think that you wouldn't really want too many people living in space aside from a rotating crew (too much time spent in space has really dire health consequences such as bone density shrinkage worse than osteoporosis sufferers). If we're at the stage where we are mining space we'll probably have it mostly automated.

We would probably want drone factories in outer space, maybe build them on the moon or whatever and we'd have a space elevator on Earth so that we can safely receive the minerals. I think a cool consequence of this would be that we could start to eventually build big space ships in space which would drastically reduce the cost and perhaps even work on things like orbital hydroponics farms that rely solely on the 24/7 solar power you get in space. The less land that we use on Earth for farming/mining etc the more people we can support on Earth.

Eventually I think we'll have a master list of planets that are within range of Earth using nuclear propulsion or the EM drive and that are also potentially habitable and we'll establish a colony there. I imagine that we'll basically just keep doing this until we've colonized as much as possible. It's going to be much harder if we don't have FTL travel but with stasis technology and potential lifepan increasing medical enhancements it is feasible.
>>
>>74237160
Any new colony needs hundreds not dozens. Any ship sent to Mars to colonize will have likely near 1000 or more people on it.
>>
>>74236876
Haha, the biggest "fuckup" will probably be that in a considerably short time the people on the colony will develop their own culture, customs and be far more patriotic to their colony than Earth. They won't want to do what Earth tells them and either Earth will starve them out, militarily agress them or will cut contact. Interstellar war will most likely be between different human colonized planets for sure.
>>
>>74237498
Not neccesarily, it might be more prudent to send people gradually rather than in one fell swoop. If you really wanted to save on costs as much as possible you could send a bunch of women and send heaps of frozen sperm. I remember reading that you need around 1500 breeding partners in order to have a population that won't succumb to the effects of inbreeding, we have so much genetic variation stored in the ball sacs of dudes living on Earth that it won't be too much of a hassle.
>>
>>74237543
If you think interstellar war or even aggression will happen between Earth and the colonies so early you've been playing too many 4x games. Rebellion is likely but it's not gonna happen in the first 4 or 5 generations of [colony]-born people. The influx from Earth is going to be massive for a long time, enough to keep the people inhabiting any planet from feeling like there's a difference between "us and them."

That's interesting! First time I hear about it. And I forgot a lot about the hydro-cycle I guess (they thought me that I'm sure). Seems like it would require yuuge mountains to make a difference though. That would be hell of a project.

The other megageoprojects I heard about were draining the mediterranean (this one is somewhat famous):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atlantropa

And creating new lakes in northern Africa by digging canals with nukes (I forgot how those projects were called). The water would evaporate and cause more rain. Eventually the lake beds would become filled with salt though.
>>
>>74237795
Sure and not to mention that they won't have power anywhere comparable to Earth for a long time but the culture will be exceedingly different and I would wager that the populations of the colonies will be disproportionately Chinese, Indian and African, from overpopulated overstrained countries seeking a better life. Westerners on these colonies will be a minority and I think that we won't have too frequent contact with the colonists either due to the speed of light. We won't be able to spam them with imperialistic American media very well.

Yeah it would be an incredibly expensive project but when you look at the international rise of real estate prices, overcrowding of cities and an increasingly urbanized human population it seems inevitable that we're going to need more large cities.

It'll be different but it will be ours. Idk if you've watched Babylon 5 but it's a good example of the kind of diplomacy a not completely Earth based system can implement while maintaining independence yet also holding "American" ideals. It will be different, it will be strange, but there will be a mainstream train of thought that's held by the inhabitants regardless of the daily migrations. That's how people function.The culture does shift slightly but it's also transferred slightly. This is why I want the first station destroyed from a "Hell-like invasion" because I know that no matter what happens our first try will get sacrificed on the altar of progress and we'll keep on keepin' on.

Without sending a recon mission first, we wouldn't even know what we're sending them to. The ship would have to be huge to be prepared for every eventuality.

It would probably be much cheaper to send a human factory instead. Frozen embryos or something. A few decades before reaching destination, babies are grown in tubes and raised by robots. If scanners don't show habitable planets they could just not bother with the humans and the mission becomes to establish an automated outpost instead.

Another option, believe it or not, is the upper atmosphere of Venus. Unlike most of the planet, the air that far above the clouds has a climate and atmospheric pressure very similar to Earth's.

I fail so see how, considering it actually has a thick atmosphere, unlike mars.

Plus, the tidal forces from saturn keep its core hot, and in motion.

Titan is a better candidate than mars.

So what? Space is a harsher environment than the surface of Titan.

Why try to Jumpstart at dead planet like mars, when you can just invest in a way to get to Titan instead.

The atmosphere is not toxic. It is 90% nitrogen. Very thick as well. It has a natural cycle similar to our water cycle, except with liquid methane.

It's the best chance of habitability in our solar system.
>>
>>74241411
More chances that it could leak in the suits/habitats and poison people? It said there was cyanide of some kind in it. Dunno if that's the super toxic one. Maybe it's not a risk as long as inside pressure is higher than outside.
If we were to terraform eventually, the current atmosphere would have to be removed or detoxified as an extra step. All the soil must be contaminated as well.
>>
>>74241568
True but we've pretty much explored nothing in terms of the size of the ocean unless that changed? wasn't it like 5-10% explored at most? For all we know there could be a shitton of cool things down there.
>>
>>74241411
You'd just need a way to keep warm, along with an oxygen tank.

It's not toxic, or corrosive. You're thinking of venus.

Even if liquid methane rained on your coat, you'd still be fine. Leidenfrost effect is real.

Well, there is a cloud of frozen cyanide about 80km up in the atmosphere, but it only appears at the change of seasons (7 years long) and only over the south pole, 80km up. That's like saying there's too much radiation 80km above earth to live there.

The only problem would be keeping warm, breathing oxygen, and growing food. The same problems you'd have on mars, only you wouldn't need a pressurized suit on titan.
>>
>>74241663
The military have been mapping it for their submarines. They patrol it nonstop.

I don't know if they really mapped the deep area though. But I think they have heightmaps for most of it. They use them to find their own position when needed.

It's hard to scan anything underwater. You can't see far and radars doesn't work. Sonars don't give precise images. You're basically blind.

And the pressure makes building habitats even harder than in space.

Fair enough I'd assume it would be difficult if you go to a good depth since like you said, pressure. Though I assumed radar was pretty solid by this point no? Because I'd assume that the people who went down the Marianas trench would've used extensive radar and that type of tech to map it a bit while down there?

Ah ok.
>The only problem would be keeping warm
At -180C yeah it must be. I guess everything could be nuclear-powered and produce a lot of heat.

Now I remember reading that with the low-gravity and very dense atmosphere, a human could fly if it had wings strapped to its arms. Dunno if that's correct.

>>74230773
Honestly depends on how terraformed it is.
>>
>>74242218
Nope. Pretty sure there's no radar underwater. The water stops the EM waves after a few meters or some such. No radio (or other EM) communications either. Submarine communications is always a problem (between their bases on earth, or their guided torpedoes, or their buys on the surface, etc). They either use cables, or sonar (which is detectable by other submarines). To receive their orders they often go near the surface and deploy a communication buoy connected by cable.

The US had a system of "extremely low frequency" communication for their subs (one-way, it only sent the periodic orders to NOT launch the nukes (when appropriate)), but it was expensive and made the whales go mad, so they stopped using it. It had two stations on opposite coasts of the US (each with their own power stations (it was power hungry)) and used the whole earth as an antenna somehow (they intersected at the earth's core or something).

The colonists are dependant entirely on the country who founded the colony being able to constantly send very expensive deliveries to them.
If america goes to war, goes broke, whatever, the colonists are fucked.
Mars simply doesnt have the resources to become self sufficient.
If the want to build a new wing for their growing population, all the metal, electronics, chemicals, whatever has to be shipped from earth.
Anything from earth is also going to take many many years to arrive, so deliveries will almost certainly not be sufficient for all maintenance, medical and personal needs.
Also any power struggles or violent conflicts of any scale amongst settlers could have drastic consequences in an environment so confined and delicate.

Jamestown colonists might have been an ocean away from england but at least the air was breathable and the soil had plants.
